The Montlake Historic District is now listed in the Washington Heritage Register, and has been submitted to the National Park Service for listing in the National Register!

We are thrilled to report that the Governor’s Advisory Council on Historic Preservation has listed the Montlake Historic District in the Washington Heritage Register, and has recommended that the district be listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). We anticipate that following a 45-60 day review period, the district will be listed in the National Register.

The final nomination components can be found on the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) website. The version that was submitted to DAHP in March are available in the sidebar on this page.

We recognize and appreciate the great work and dedication of the Governor’s Advisory Council on Historic Preservation; the State Historic Preservation Officer, Allyson Brooks; State Architectural Historian Michael Houser; and the Montlake Community Club. Thanks and congratulations!

As always, please contact Steve Archer, WSDOT Cultural Resources Specialist, at 206-805-2895 or archers@wsdot.wa.gov if you have any questions about the nomination or the process.

We appreciate the ongoing assistance and support of the Montlake Community!
