There are two Historic Context Statements about Queen Anne. One covers the period to 1962. The second commissioned by the Queen Anne Historical Society covers the period from 1963 to 2012. It was funded by a generous grant from 4Culture.

Historical Context Statements are called out by the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic Preservation as the basic tool underpinning individual and historic district landmark nominations either to local registers or the National Register of Historic Places.

The first Queen Anne Historic Context Statement is the work of Florence K. Lentz and Mimi Sheridan For the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods, Historic Preservation Program and the Queen Anne Historical Society October 2005.

The second one called the Queen Anne Historic Context Statement Update: 1963-2012. It is the work of Carl Williams and Heather Lee Miller of Historical Research Associates for the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods, Historic Preservation Program and the Queen Anne Historical Society in December 2015.
