State & Federal Tax Credits The State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) administers both state and federal Rehabilitation Tax Credit programs for projects in Iowa. The State Historic Preservation and Cultural and Entertainment District Tax Credit Program provides a state income tax credit for the sensitive rehabilitation of historic buildings. It ensures character-defining features and spaces of buildings are retained and helps revitalize surrounding neighborhoods. The Program provides an income tax credit of 25% of qualified rehabilitation costs. Each year, 30% of the total available tax credits are reserved for rehabilitation projects taking place in Cultural & Entertainment Districts (CED) or projects that are a part of a Iowa Great Places proposal.
