Winter Park is a city recognized for its old Florida sense of place. The unique character of Winter Park is due in part to it historic architecture as reflected in its vibrant downtown, gracious neighborhoods and landmark buildings. The Historic Preservation Division administers the Historic Preservation Ordinance (Chapter 58, Article VIII) and serves as the liaison to the Historic Preservation Board. City staff maintains the Winter Park Register of Historic Places and receives applications for designations to the register, as well as Certificate of Review applications for additions and alterations to historic properties.
