Introduction
The information contained below is from the web site of the Historic Preservation Office (HPO) under the Department of Envirnomental Protection, State of New Jersey and offers information on nominations listed with the National Register of Historic Places. Please refer to the HPO web site for information at
http://www.state.nj.us/dep/hpo/1identify/nrsr_lists.htm:
"The following New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places listings include properties and historic districts in New Jersey for which a formal action was taken by the State Historic Preservation Officer or designee. The listings are current through the end of 2002, and the HPO will update these listings on a periodic basis to reflect ongoing additions and corrections.
The listings itemize the buildings, structures, sites, objects, and districts listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places (SR) and the National Register of Historic Places (NR).They also include resources that have received Certifications of Eligibility (COE), opinions of eligibility from the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO Opinion), or Determinations of Eligibility (DOE) from the Keeper of the National Register. These properties and historic districts all meet the New Jersey and National Register criteria for significance in American history, archaeology, architecture, engineering or culture, and possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. Properties that have been entered on the New Jersey and/or National Registers of Historic Places are listed by their historic names, which may be different from their current names. Properties that have SHPO Opinions or DOE's are listed by their historic name, when known.
Listings are provided for each county, and organized alphabetically by municipality. Because properties and districts may cross municipal and county boundaries, all such entries include cross references to the main entry. The main entry includes a list of all counties and municipalities in which the property or district is located, and serves as the filing location for the documentation at the HPO. All register nominations, SHPO Opinions, COE's and DOE's are on file at the HPO and available for inspection by appointment.(1)"
