Monteith National Register Historic District Expansion

Nomination Update, May 2008

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Albany citizens spearheaded a grass-roots preservation effort in the 1970s that resulted in three of the City’s National Register historic districts. The Monteith District was the first Albany district to be listed in the National Register in 1980.

Research of hundreds of historic properties outside of the existing district boundaries indicates there is justification to expand the Monteith District to more closely follow historical development patterns south to 11th and 12th Avenues and west to Elm Street.
