D. Historic Districts Eligible for the Registry of National Historic Landmarks

In some instances, groups of historic buildings located in proximity, when considered collectively, provide outstanding illustrations of a past era. These groups are designated Historic Districts and declared eligible for the Registry of National Historic Landmarks. Such districts sometimes include individual structures that are eligible on their own merits for Landmark designation. The following Historic Districts illustrate the phases of history treated in this volume.

1. Vieux Carré, La. (NHL designation 12/21/65)

2. Colonial Annapolis, Md. (NHL designation 06/23/65)
