Historic Architectural Survey of the City of York. Final Report
In 2007 and 2008, Brockington and Associates, Inc., conducted a historic architectural survey of the City of York for the city government and the South Carolina Department of Archives and History. The objective of this survey is to identify all aboveground historic architectural resources in the survey universe that retain sufficient integrity to be included in the Statewide Survey of Historic Places. These resources include buildings, structures, objects, districts, and landscapes that have architectural or historical significance. We conducted this research and fieldwork with several goals in mind. The project can provide information for public officials in the county to allow them to make informed decisions regarding the impact of development and other public activities on the City of Yorks cultural resources and to set priorities for the protection and use of these resources. The historical overview contained in this report can provide an appreciation and understanding of these resources. The results of this survey can serve as an archival record of the City of Yorks historic resources at the time of the survey; this report contains an inventory of every site recorded during the fieldwork. This project is part of the Statewide Survey of Historic Places, a program coordinated by the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). The purpose of this statewide program is to identify all cultural resources in the state and to highlight those that are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NR HP) and for local designation. The federal government has recommended this process of documentation through the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended. The Statewide Survey of Historic Places provides the SHPO with information that enables it to review the impact of projects with federal components on resources eligible for the NR HP. Federal projects require environmental and cultural review permits to proceed, which in turn requires review by the SHPO. In addition, some federal grants for cultural resources and certain federal tax incentives for rehabilitation of historic buildings require a determination of NR HP status. The information developed through the Historic Architectural Resources Survey of the City of York gives the SHPO a basis for making these determinations.
