The Virgin Islands Historic Preservation Commission’s Historic Registry Districts and Historic and Architectural Control Districts boundaries will be featured on the territory’s free public land viewer MapGeo website.

MapGeo is part of the Virgin Islands Geographical Information System (GIS) Platform and is managed by the GIS Division of the Office of the Lieutenant Governor.ย  MapGeo is also the most actively used Government of the Virgin Islands website. The Virgin Islands Historic Preservation Commission’s Historic Districts data can be found under the โ€œThemesโ€ tab on the MapGeo website and can be graphically manipulated to the user’s needs.ย  The historic district’s data was available by Oct. 1, 2022, for the start of the 2023 fiscal year.

If there are any questions regarding property responsibilities in the Virgin Islands Historic Districts, contact the Virgin Islands State Historic Preservation Office at 776-8605 on St. Thomas or at 719-7089 on St. Croix.
