Battle Road Structure Survey, Phases I-II

Phillips MK. 2005. Battle Road Structure Survey, Phases I-II. Combined Historic Structure Report and Cultural Landscape Report. National Park Service, Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation. Boston, Massachusetts

Minute Man National Historical Park protects 970 acres in and around the Massachusetts towns of Lexington, Lincoln, and Concord, commemorating the opening battle in the American Revolutionary War. The Minute Man National Historical Park Battle Road Structure Survey project was completed in two phases. Phase I, completed in October 2004, determined an impact assessment for the 14 structures and 10 sites included in the project. The summary of the Impact Assessment of phase I is included on page 6 of this report. Phase II of this project utilized the findings from phase I as a guide in formulating new use alternatives for each structure and site. The goal of phase II was to use the findings from phase I and generate a list of alternative new uses for each site within the project scope. The objective during this process was to create this list of new uses in collaboration with the park as well as professionals from a variety of disciplines. Input from the park was invaluable to this process because of the intimate familiarity they possess not only of their cultural resources, but also the day-today activities that they experience within the park.
