  1. Ahoskie, North Carolina and its Historic Districts Update October 5, 2006

  2. There are two National Register nominations being prepared for two historic districts in Ahoskie: an expansion of the existing Ahoskie Historic District, and the Holloman Avenue Historic District.

  3. Ahoskie Historic District • The Ahoskie Historic District contains residential, commercial, religious, and industrial buildings centered around the downtown.

  4. Holloman Avenue Historic District • The Holloman Avenue Historic District contains commercial, educational, and residential buildings surrounding the Vann School and the Atlantic District Fairgrounds.

  5. All different types of historic buildings are included in these districts. Some of these include the following buildings:

  6. Where are we now in the process of having these two districts listed on the National Register? • Preliminary boundaries of the two districts have been suggested and reviewed by the North Carolina Historic Preservation Office • A photographic inventory, description, and history of all of the buildings in both districts has been completed, and is now being finalized. • Draft National Register nominations with the complete inventory and history of the two districts will be completed by October 31, 2006.

  7. Preliminary Boundaries for the two Historic Districts

  8. Why were these boundaries selected? • These boundaries include historic buildings, and cannot include large groups of buildings that date after 1956, or that have been altered, or areas where there once were historic buildings that have been demolished.

  9. What’s next? • The nominations will be reviewed by the Eastern Office of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office • The nominations will then be reviewed by the Raleigh Office of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office • The consultant will revise the nominations and submit the final nomination to the Historic Preservation Office

  10. What happens to the final National Register nominations? • The National Register Advisory Committee, a panel of experts from across North Carolina, reviews the nomination and recommends that the State Historic Preservation Officer sign the document and submit it to the National Register office in Washington, D.C. for their approval. • The Keeper of the National Register then signs the nomination and then the two districts are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
