George Rogers Clark National Historical Park Vincennes, Indiana

The intent of this combined Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) and Environmental Assessment (EA) is to guide treatment and use of the above-ground resources associated with the historic area at George Rogers Clark National Historical Park (GERO). A thorough investigation and evaluation of the cultural landscape has been conducted using National Park Service (NPS) and National Register of Historic Places guidelines. "A CLR evaluates the history and integrity of the landscape and guides management and treatment decisions about a landscape's physical attributes, biotic systems, and use when that use contributes to historical significance."1 Because the CLR and EA are being produced concurrently, this combined report has an altered framework from the typical versions of either stand alone report. However, all required elements are included herein. The report will serve as a guide for future development, improvements, and management of the cultural landscape resources at GERO. This Cultural Landscape Report and Environmental Assessment has been prepared by The Jaeger Company, a consulting firm that specializes in environmental assessment, landscape architecture, planning and historic preservation and RATIO Architects, Inc. to fulfill a contract with the Midwest Regional Office of the National Park Service.
