California Points of Historical Interest

California Points of Historical Interest are sites, buildings, features, or events that are of local (city or county) significance and have anthropological, cultural, military, political, architectural, economic, scientific or technical, religious, experimental, or other value. By contrast, California Historical Landmarks are buildings, structures, sites, or places in California with statewide historical significance that meet certain criteria.

Points of Historical Interest designated after December 1997 and recommended by the State Historical Resources Commission are listed in the California Register of Historical Resources.

No historical resource may be designated as both a Landmark and a Point. If a Point is subsequently granted status as a Landmark, the Point designation will be retired.

Criteria

To be eligible for designation as a Point of Historical Interest, a resource must meet at least one of the following criteria:

  1. The first, last, only, or most significant of its type within the local geographic region (City or County);
  2. Associated with an individual or group having a profound influence on the history of the local area; or
  3. A prototype of, or an outstanding example of, a period, style, architectural movement or construction or is one of the more notable works or the best surviving work in the local region of a pioneer architect, designer or master builder.

Selected points

gollark: Can you be more specific?
gollark: I mean, it would be easy for a single company to go around conning silly people, much harder for an entire very significant sector of the economy to have a massive conspiracy and keep it covered up.
gollark: > Tell me why exactly you think someone would go to the effort of grafting and setting up a real company, only to con people... because, conning people... gets you money?
gollark: burden of proof™
gollark: Nuclear is very cool and needs to be used more.
