Title: THE GREAT RIVER ROAD - A MODEL FOR AMERICA'S SCENIC ROUTES
Accession Number: 00204690
Record Type: Component
Abstract: COMMENTS ARE MADE ON THE CHANGING AMERICAN ECONOMY, MORE LEISURE TIME FOR PLEASURE DRIVING AND OUTDOOR RECREATION, AND THE OBSOLESCENCE OF OLD ROADS BECAUSE OF NEW HIGHWAY SYSTEMS. THESE FACTORS ARE RELATED TO A FORMULA WHICH WILL REVITALIZE OLD ROADS AND GIVE THEM CONTINUED USEFULNESS. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE FORMULA NOW BEING APPLIED ON THE GREAT RIVER ROAD COULD SERVE AS THE MODEL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF OTHER SCENIC ROUTE SYSTEMS.
