Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a historically valuable report that serves as an architectural and engineering assessment of three structures in the Giant Forest Village/Camp Kaweah Historic District of Sequoia National Park: the Giant Forest Market, Comfort Station, and District Ranger's Residence. It was commissioned in 1988 to proactively satisfy cultural resource management guidelines by assessing the qualities that make the buildings eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The construction of these three buildings in the late 1920s was part of a larger development plan for a new commercial center and housekeeping camp in response to the opening of the Generals Highway, which bisected the former village and camp locations. The author provides an in-depth historical and architectural exploration of each building, resulting in a detailed record of their construction, use, and modifications over the years. The significance of the buildings lies in their architectural merit and landscape placement, meeting stringent National Park Service standards for environmentally sensitive designs. Once the visitor services currently housed in them are moved out of the Giant Forest area, these structures will be the only remaining buildings in the village, representing a crucial part of the park's history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528419703_0
