Navigating the HDLC Class

This free, one-hour class is designed to help property owners understand the Historic District Landmarks Commission (HDLC) and the application process. Taught by HDLC staff, this class will help residents smoothly navigate the application process and prevent common frustrations and pitfalls experienced by some applicants.

The New Orleans and Central Business District Historic District Landmarks Commissions regulate 17 local historic districts and have almost 50,000 structures under their jurisdiction. This class is great for property owners who live in a local historic district and are considering making changes to their homes, or those considering purchasing in a local historic district. The class is held 10 times annually, alternating between lunchtime and evenings each month to make it accessible for different schedules.
