Checking an Address
Requirements and approvals for a construction project depend on the zoning of the property in question, as well as whether the work is being done within a Design Review or Preservation district, or another special district. The Development Services Department has developed an online search system to allow citizens and applicants to research the details of their property.

Click on the By Address link in the left-hand column. This page appears:
- Enter an address in the appropriate fields. Be sure to only put the street name, and not the suffix. For example, as in the screen shot above, for 915 I Street, put “915” under “Street Number”, and just “I” for the street name. You can select “Street” in the Suffix field, but it is not required. Then, click on the “Search” button.
- Select the desired address from the list that appears. (Similiar versions of the same address may appear. This is due to different ways the address was entered into the system over the years.)
