Local Historic District designation is intended to protect and enhance existing historic resources. By establishing local historic district zoning, the City of Austin provides a mechanism to ensure that architectural changes within the local historic district are compatible with the historic character of the district. Buildings within these districts may not have sufficient historical or architectural significance on their own to be designated as Austin Historic Landmarks, but they have significance as part of their neighborhood fabric.
