Abstract:

This paper addresses cultural and rural historic landscapes. The author describes the process for determining significance of historic landscapes, noting particularly the issues of integrity, boundaries, and multiple periods of significance. Using case examples, the author takes us through many of the practical issues that arise when landscapes are evaluated for historic significance. Finally, he describes early planning efforts aimed at accommodating transportation needs and landscape preservation and recommends that we incorporate some of those principles in modern transportation planning.
