National Register Status

Cabrillo National Monument was entered, without documentation, onto the National Register in 1966. To provide the needed documentation of the site, a draft National Register Historic District Nomination for Cabrillo National Monument was begun in 1988 and revised in 1994. The documentation for Cabrillo National Monument Historic District was accepted by the National Register on September 18, 1998. In 1996, a district nomination was prepared for the entire Fort Rosecrans Point Loma Coastal Defenses, including properties under NPS jurisdiction at Cabrillo National Monument and under U.S. Navy jurisdiction at Fort Rosecrans. The structures are considered significant under criterion A, history, for their associations with World War I and World War II. The structures are also significant under criterion C, architecture, as examples of military design and technology.
