This federal review--required by the 1966 National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA)--is commonly known as a "Section 106 review."

This Section 106 review will identify, assess, and resolve potential "adverse effects" the  proposed Pullman Artspace Lofts may cause to the integrity of the Pullman National Historic Landmark District through consultation with federal, state, and local agencies, as well as, with other "consulting parties" and the public.

We invite members of the community and the public to learn more about this important review and encourage you to take part in it.

In September 2017, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) required a do-over historic review of the Pullman Artspace Lofts because earlier reviews were not conducted lawfully
