We* have reviewed the information in the <br /> reports and offer the following comments in accordance with <br /> N.C.G.S. 160A-400.6. <br /> All four properties are individually listed in the National <br /> Register of Historic Places; and the National Register <br /> nominations, which document the significance and integrity of <br /> each property, serve as the designation reports. <br /> We concur that the changes that have occurred since the <br /> nominations were prepared have not been major and that each <br /> property substantially retains integrity (intactness) . All four <br /> properties are excellent candidates for landmark designation and <br /> are most worthy of the recognition and protection designation <br /> will bring. <br /> Two of the nominations are more that twenty years old, and while <br /> they form good bases for designation reports, they do not contain <br /> adequate information to constitute full, strong reports. Many <br /> older nominations are sketchy in this respect and must be <br /> supplemented for local designation purposes.
