One of the city's newest tourist attractions could carry a new distinction.

The space shuttle prototype Enterprise in Manhattan's Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum is among the 25 nominations from the state parks department for induction into the State and National Registers of Historic Places.

The list includes buildings and sites in more than a dozen counties statewide.

Six of the nominations are in the city, including the Murray Hill Historic District, the First Battery Armory and Women’s National Republican Club in Manhattan.

Brooklyn's Storehouse Number 2, the U.S. Navy Fleet Supply Base and the Far Rockaway Beach Bungalow Historic District in Queens are also nominated.

Properties on the register are eligible for public preservation programs and services.
