Preliminary Property Evaluation
Further Survey Necessary: Archaeological Historic Architecture
No Further Survey Necessary
Recommend Eligible: Individual Contributing to:
Criteria: [Check All That Apply] A B C D
Reasoning: Station Absecon displays multiple alterations in form and materials that have substantially affected its architectural and
historic integrity. For this reason, it does not meet Criterion C for listing as a contributing property to the proposed
National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligible South Atlantic City Historic District. However URS believes the
building is individually eligible for listing in the NRHP under Criterion A for its local, state, and national significance,
specifically for it serving as one of the earliest regional US Lifesaving Service Stations (USLSS), the antecedent agency
to the United States Coast Guard. The proposed boundary for the historic property is the legal parcel. The building is
likely associated with the late 19th century settlement and development of South Atlantic City. While not necessarily
associated with the development of the surrounding neighborhood, the building is associated with the role of the US
Lifesaving Service on the East Coast, and is of local, state, and national significance. The building appears to retain its
integrity of location; however the following alterations represent a loss of integrity of design, materials, and
workmanship: the construction and attachment of a large one-story addition to the rear of the building; the replacement
of doors and fenestration alterations, throughout the building, and the use of vinyl siding to the exterior. The property’s
setting and feeling have also been altered, in that what was once likely a lone building in a coastal, seaside area is now
part of a thriving downtown environment. The addition of a wrap-around parking lot further represents a loss of both. Its
integrity of association has also been affected as it is no longer owned or operated by the Coast Guard.
Recommend Ineligible: Lacks Integrity of Materials/Design
Not 48 Years of Age
Not Within / In View of a National Register of Historic Places Listed / Eligible Historic District
Not a Building (per FEMA Definition)
Other – Lacks Distinctive Characteristics That Make It Individually Eligible for Listing on NRHP
Assessment of Effects No Historic
Properties
Adversely Affected
The proposed undertaking of rehabilitation as described in the attached scopes of work will have No
Adverse Effect on the possible historic area identified as the (NRHP)-eligible South Atlantic City Historic District. Although the building is deemed eligible for listing in the NRHP for its historical
association with the USLSS, it has been significantly altered and is not believed to be a contributing
architectural resource to the proposed historic district. We recommend to the NJHPO that they consider recognizing the building’s prior function through a state historic marker or plaque, but architectural
limitations to the proposed rehabilitation are not believed warranted.
No Historic Properties Adversely Affected, provided the following conditions are met:
