The Phoenix Historic Property Register is the official listing of the historic and prehistoric properties in the city of Phoenix, the capital and largest city, of the U.S. state of Arizona.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Phoenix QuickFacts from US Census Bureau )〕 ==History== The register was established on 1986 with the aim of recognizing buildings, structures, sites, objects and districts significant in local, regional, state or national history, architecture, archaeology, engineering and culture which have been deemed worthy of preservation.〔(City of Phoenix )〕〔(Phoenix Historic Property Register )〕 The historic properties are divided into three categories and listed with a Historic Preservation zoning overlay. The categories are: Historic Residential Districts, Historic Non-Residential Districts and Individual Properties. The factors which are taken into consideration and which are included in the eligibility criteria for inclusion are:1.The historical significance of the property, 2. the age of the property (at least 50 years old) and 3. the integrity of the property (condition).〔〔 According to the Phoenix Historic Property Register, once listed, the properties are protected from demolition. However, according to Robert A. Melikian, author of the book “Vanishing Phoenix”, Phoenix’s preservation office does not have the ability to deny a demolition permit. Therefore, the owner of a property, listed either in the National Register of Historic Places or the Phoenix Historic Property Register, may demolish the historical property if he or she so wishes.〔”Vanishing Phoenix”; by Robert A. Melikian; Page 127; Publisher: Arcadia Publishing; ISBN 978-0738578811.〕 Among the properties that have been demolished are the following: *Arizona Citrus Growers Association Warehouse-601 E. Jackson St. *Craftsman Bungalow-1241 E. Roosevelt St. Some of the historic houses and buildings which are listed in the Phoenix Historic Property Register are also listed in the "enDangered Dozen Historic Places List,” released by the Phoenix Historic Neighborhoods Coalition. These structures are prone to vandalism and the elements. Among the structures which are neglected and are at the highest risk of disappearing in the near future are the following:〔(Endangered Historic Phoenix Home )〕 * The William R. Norton House, built in 1895 and located at 2222 W. Washington St. * The Charles Pugh House, built in 1897 and located at 356 N. Second Ave./ 362 N.
