Boyd & Parker Park and Groveland Ambuscade
The National Park Service has not published a boundary polygon for this district; the map shows the listed properties inside it and the district's reference point.
Why it's listed
Boyd & Parker Park and Groveland Ambuscade is a historic district at Cuylerville, in the town of Groveland, Livingston County, New York. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009 under reference number 07000757. The file supplied for this entry is incomplete. It consists of a notice that the nomination form and photographs are missing, along with a USGS topographic map of the Conesus, New York quadrangle that marks the location of the district. Because the written description and statement of significance are absent, details such as the date of construction, the people involved, the physical features and the specific reasons for listing cannot be confirmed from this material. The name points to a park and an ambuscade site associated with Boyd and Parker, but the supplied pages do not explain the events or the people behind it. Further information would need to come from the full nomination record.

What listing means for this property
This is a historic district. Buildings within its boundary are either contributing (they add to the district's significance) or non-contributing. Owners of contributing income-producing buildings can claim the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit; homeowners should look at state credits. National Register districts impose no design review by themselves; a local historic district ordinance, if one exists, does (the difference explained).
