Wake County and the City of Raleigh's Online Mapping Service iMAPS is a quick way to determine if your property is located in a local historic district:

- In the left margin select "Address."
- Enter your address in the space provided in the right margin. Select "Search."
- When you are able to view your property, scroll down to "Select a View" and select "Raleigh Zoning."
- In the right hand margin select "Historic Overlay District (HOD)." If your property is in a local historic district, hatching will appear.
For the new iMAPS:
- In the right margin select Search by "Address."
- Enter your street number in the space provided.
- Begin typing your street name in the space provided. It should display possibibilities up as you type. Click on the correct address - the search should automatically begin. If not press "enter" or click the magnifying glass to search.
- When you are able to view your property, click on "Show Additional Layers on Map" at the bottom of the right panel.
- Scroll down to "Overlay Districts" under "Planning." Select "Historic Overlay District." Properties within the district will now be covered in a blue hatched layer.
