Most properties in the APNA boundaries are within a Historic District (although not all buildings are “contributing structures”). However, the buildings are not all in the same Historic District. If you live within the APNA RNO boundaries, your building may be within the boundaries of one of three different historic districts. The main and largest district is the Alamo Placita Historic District. Some buildings in APNA are in the East Seventh Avenue Historic District. In addition, a few APNA homes are in the Country Club Historic District. None of the APNA buildings are in the nearby Driving Park Historic District.

It is a common misconception that APNA approves or disapproves changes to buildings in the Alamo Placita Historic District. Instead it is the Landmark Preservation Commission that is involved in that process.
