Leesburg Historic Preservation begins downtown

Members of the Community Development Department’s Historic Preservation Division will begin office hours in the downtown historic district.

Preservation staff will have dedicated office hours on the second floor of 15 North King Street, where the Town’s Economic Development Department is located. Staff will be available during the following days and times, exclusive of holidays:

• Mondays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
• Wednesdays from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
• Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Historic District residents, property or business owners who require assistance with Certificates of Appropriateness applications or other historic preservation questions regarding the Leesburg Old and Historic District may utilize these office hours on a walk-in basis, or may make an appointment by calling 703-771-2765.

“With our department’s move earlier this year to 222 Catoctin Circle, we understand that some members of the public and business community may miss our proximity to them from back when our offices were located in Town Hall. We hope these historic district office hours are helpful in closing that gap,” stated Preservation Planner Lauren Murphy.
