Historic Resource Survey

The City of Georgetown, with a grant through the Certified Local Government (CLG) Program of the Texas Historical Commission (THC), commissioned Hardy·Heck·Moore, Inc. (HHM) to conduct a historic resources survey to update a survey that HHM prepared for the Georgetown Heritage Society in 1984. Phase I of the 2007 survey update located, documented, and reevaluated all resources documented by the 1984 survey. This survey documented all pre-1935 historic resources built within the city limits and its extraterritorial jurisdiction. Phase II of the 2007 survey located, documented, and evaluated buildings, structures, objects, and districts built by 1960 within the city limits of 2007. Resource types include buildings, structures, objects, sites, and districts. The survey aims to heighten awareness of Georgetown's historic resources, support implementation of the City's historic preservation ordinance, and guide planning for future development.

The Historic Survey Update is currently available for public review.  The document is broken into smaller section for quicker availability.  The printed document, in its entirety, is available for viewing at the Georgetown Public Library and at the City Planning Department, located at 300-1 Industrial Avenue, Georgetown Municipal Complex.
