Talk:List of Recorded Texas Historic Landmarks (Anderson-Callahan)

development
I just noticed this list and wonder about its relationship to the National Register of Historic Places listings in Texas, i.e. National Register of Historic Places listings in Texas. In some other states (NY?, NJ?, CT?), a property's listing on the NRHP automatically puts it on the corresponding state register of historic places. There certainly will be at least partial overlap here.-- do ncr  am  16:27, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
 * The overlap is at best only partial. Texas has two general historic places registries: RTHLs and State Antiquities Landmarks. I've encountered several NRHPs that are not RTHLs nor SALs. A few sites may belong to all three, and there seems to be no rhyme nor reason why many NRHPs are not included on the state registers. Also, the locations of all RTHLs are publicly disclosed thereby prohibiting the inclusion of archaeological sites or cultural sites of native peoples with restricted addresses on the NRHP. SALs fall into either of two categories: architectural sites that are publicly disclosed, and archaeological sites that the THC doesn't even publicly acknowledge as listing other than saying such a list exists. In addition, SALs can't be federal properties, although RTHLs may. The public SAL list includes many fewer properties than RTHLs, and SALs require a restrictive permitting process to modify or demolish a property. I know it's confusing, but I hope I provided at least some clarification. Fortguy (talk) 04:53, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
