ASU Historic Preservation Planning & Projects

Current plans for Historic Preservation on the Tempe, Polytechnic and Downtown campuses include development and implementation of the following:

• Historic Preservation Plans for all campuses
• Historic Context Reports for the Tempe and Polytechnic Campuses
• Building Surveys to identify and evaluate buildings and sites which may be eligible for the State and National Registers of Historic Places
• Preservation and rehabilitation of historic properties through proper maintenance and renovation
• Archaeological surveys of sites of proposed construction projects

Note:  There are currently no historic buildings on the West Campus due to the relatively recent development of the campus, which began in the late 1980’s.
