In 1974, Roger Williams Park was added to the National Register of Historic Places. The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the United States federal government’s official list of sites, buildings, structures, districts, and objects deemed worthy of preservation for their historical significance or “great artistic value”.
For most of its history, the National Register has been administered by the National Park Service (NPS), an agency within the United States Department of the Interior. Its goals are to help property owners and interest groups, such as the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and coordinate, identify and protect historic sites in the United States.
