Old Town College Park Architectural Survey December 1997 Report This survey report was completed at the request of the City of College Park and the Old Town
Citizens' Association under the Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities Program. The
purpose of the survey was to collect general data about the architectural and historical character
of the original 1889 subdivision of College Park: today known as Old Town. The survey also resulted
in preliminary findings about the potential eligibility of the survey area for listing in the
National Register of Historic Places as an Historic District and for potential designation as an
Historic District under the Prince George's County Historic Preservation Ordinance. The report
contains general historic background, a general architectural description, recommendations on
eligibility for historic district designation, and potential actions to follow this report. The
report's appendices include sample architectural survey forms, a detailed building inventory, a
glossary of building forms and styles, and the Historic Preservation Commission's Evaluation
Criteria, Policies and Guidelines. The report is illustrated with maps and photographs.
