Killion J, Brown MC, Stakely JT. 2006. Cultural Landscape Report for the Eisenhower National Historic Site, Volume 2: Treatment. Cultural Landscape Report. National Park Service, Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation. Boston, MA
The first volume of the CLR contains a comprehensive site history, record of existing conditions, analysis of the significance with respect to the National Register of Historic Places, and evaluation of integrity and extant historic landscape characteristics and features. Existing conditions maps of the four farms appear in Volume 1. This second volume of the CLR articulates a preservation strategy for the long-term landscape management of Farms #1, #2, #3, and the Clement Redding Farm. In particular, it reexamines and reevaluates the General Management Plan recommendations with direction set by subsequent management documents and more recent applicable guidelines and policies. The park’s current management direction and philosophy are reflected in the Statement for Management (1992), Long Range Interpretive Plan (2000), Wayside Plan (2004), and Strategic Park Management Plan for Government Performance and Results Act (2005-2010). Based on the changes in vegetation and the changes made to the landscape to accommodate visitors, the recommended treatment for the Eisenhower NHS is rehabilitation. This approach will focus on the continued maintenance and repair of landscape features remaining from the period of significance, which ends in 1969.
