THE NATIONAL REGISTER FOR HISTORIC PLACES

A listing in the National Register for Historic Places honors the property by recognizing its importance to its community, State, or the Nation.

**Note: Upon filing the nomination application, the property owner and local officials would be notified by SHPO of the intent to nominate, and public comment would be solicited. The owner of private property is given an opportunity to agree with, or object to, the nomination. If the owner of this property objects to the nomination, the historic property cannot be listed in the National Register. NY SHPO's policy states that owners support is required prior to submitting an application. Pursuing the nomination, regardless of owners support, would possibly mandate a review and subsequent determination, however the absence of owner support would preclude the listing. Our requests to Alan Gerry for his support were never realized. Filippini Pond HOME
