Cultural Landscape Report for Glen Haven Village Historic District Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore Empire, Michigan
To effectively protect and manage Glen Haven's historic district, a greater understanding of the significance of the landscape is needed. The Glen Haven site receives heavy visitor use in the spring, summer and fall months. The park will construct parking lots and driveways, regrade around historic buildings, upgrade utilities, install waysides, and improve an existing picnic area using funding from the Line-Item Construction Program. Rehabilitation of the Glen haven buildings is in progress; however, further guidelines for landscape treatment are needed. A Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) is the primary document used by the National Park Service for management of its historically significant cultural landscapes. A CLR provides park managers with a comprehensive site history; documents existing conditions; evaluates the historic significance of the landscape and analyzes its characteristics and associated features; and provides treatment recommendations to guide short and long-term management. This report for Glen Haven has been developed according to the Guide to Cultural Landscape Reports: Contents, Process, and Techniques (National Park Service, 1998). It consists of four parts: site history, existing conditions, analysis, and treatment guidelines.
