What is required for a structure to be recognized as a 'historic structure'?

  1. Age of the structure being more than 100 years

  2. Registration by national, state, or local preservation agencies

  3. Specific architectural style

  4. Located in a historically significant area

The correct answer is: Registration by national, state, or local preservation agencies

A and C are incorrect because a structure can still be considered historic without being over 100 years old or having a specific architectural style. Simply being registered by preservation agencies is enough to be recognized as a historic structure. D is also incorrect because while being located in a historically significant area can contribute to a structure's historical significance, it is not the only requirement for it to be recognized as a historic structure. The registration by preservation agencies is the definitive factor in determining a structure's historic status.
