All buildings must follow the same review process for proposed work. In a district, each property is assigned a classification: significant, contributing and non-contributing. “Significant” buildings are outstanding properties in their own right, either architecturally or culturally. “Contributing” buildings constitute the substantial part of the district. These buildings, while not individually outstanding, contribute to the overall historic fabric and significance of the district. “Non-contributing” buildings are those that do not contribute to the significance of the district, either because they have lost their integrity over time or have been built after the district’s period of significance. Although all buildings must follow the same review process, the Commission tends to be more lenient in reviewing changes for “non-contributing” buildings.
