Usually this would be something that would be of public record. So you can either ask and the office of the planning commission or look it up in the land records. The city may own it also and it could be part of a historic site. Start at city hall for records.

Hi, poepoe!

Is it in the U.S. please? If it is in the U.S. then I agree with califdadof3 as to the possible resources to use.

Thanks!
