Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings


A. Sites in the National Park System

The principal aim of the National Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings is to identify nationally important historic sites that are not units of the National Park System, but no such survey would be complete without mention of sites in the System. The sites described below are those administered by the National Park Service that have primary or secondary associations with the phases of history treated in this volume. Further information about a particular site may be obtained by writing directly to the superintendent at the address indicated.

Since the initial publication of this document (1967), ten sites eligible for National Historic Landmark designation have now been added to the National Park System; these sites have been added to this list.

1. Pipe Spring National Monument, Ariz.

2. Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, Mo.

3. Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site, Mont.

4. Homestead National Monument, Nebr.

5. Theodore Roosevelt National Park, N. Dak.

6. Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Wash.
