Westminster Historic Landmarks Survey

Three Anniversaries. Three Eras. One Community Story.

In 2026, Westminster celebrates three important milestones: the 250th anniversary of the United States, the 150th anniversary of Colorado statehood, and the 115th anniversary of the founding of Westminster. As we commemorate these milestones, we invite you to share your thoughts about what makes Westminster special from a historic preservation perspective.

Historic preservation in Westminster is guided by the Westminster Historic Landmark Board, whose members are appointed by City Council. The Board works with property owners to identify and designate historic landmarks according to the standards established in the City’s Historic Preservation Ordinance.

To learn more about the Board and designated landmarks visit the Westminster Historic Landmark Board page.

As we look to the future of historic preservation in Westminster, we invite you to share your thoughts about places that are meaningful to you. For the purposes of this survey, historic resources may include neighborhoods, buildings, parks, views, streetscapes, and other sites that reflect Westminster’s heritage.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your perspective.
