These points are directly sourced from the National Historic Landmarks, National Register, State Register, Local Historic Districts, Local Historic Places, Historic Resources inventories, CHC files, Connecticut Barns listings, Connecticut Arts & letters listings, Connecticut Making Places listings, Connecticut Freedom Trail listings, and various special surveys (Sculpture, Civil War Monuments, Municipal Parks, Town Greens, Historic Bridges). If a resource appears in multiple pdfs, it will appear as one entry.

The geolocation of these points is based on the addresses and pre-existing maps that appear in the associated pdfs of the resources. Some resources were unable to be geolocated; but will still appear in the attribute table of this layer.

The following is a list of the sources for each resource with their associated designation:

1). National Historic Landmark (NHL); with the designation “NHL”.

2). National Register (NR); with the designation “NRIND” for individual resources or NRDIS for NR Districts. A “-C” or a “-NC” is added at the end of NRIND or NRDIS to indicate if it is a contributing or non-contributing resource.

3). Restricted National Register (RNR); with the designation “NRIND” for individual resources or NRDIS for NR Districts. A “-C” or a “-NC” is added at the end of NRIND or NRDIS to indicate if it is a contributing or non-contributing resource. These resources are not geolocated and their pdfs are no available to be viewed on the

The boundaries of the district polygons are both modified and unmodified pre-existing polygons provided by NPS and SHPO, as well as new, previously unmapped districts. For the previously unmapped districts, the boundaries were defined by any maps provided by the associated resource PDF, for resources that lacked a map the boundaries were drawn based on point location. The boundaries of these district polygons may not be reflective of the boundaries as interpreted by local governments.

Please refer to the local ordinances for specific local boundary information.

The Connecticut State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) is pleased to provide the ConnCRIS Public Resource Viewer, an online application for Connecticut’s cultural resources inventory. With this initial release, SHPO is fulfilling an important responsibility to share its cultural resources inventory data. The ConnCRIS site will be updated as additional cultural resource content is developed.

The left side of the screen contains "On-Map Widgets" for interacting with the map and layers. Use the Search bar to search for towns or features of interest. The right side of the screen contains the "Banner Widgets" for viewing and changing the map features.

This guide will cover the use and functionality of the "ConnCRIS Public Resource Viewer". Additionally, this guide will also cover common questions regarding the application. The purpose of this guide is to assist in the understanding of the widgets within the application.
