Cultural Landscape Report, Harry S Truman National Historic Site, Missouri
The report will dispense with the unnecessary narrative to prove the existence of a cultural landscape utilizing specific National Park Service criteria. The 0.77-acre Truman property (structures, objects, and landscape) is twice listed in the National Register of Historic Places. As the home of President Harry S. Truman, it is of primary national significance and is inherently historic. In mid-1986, the Midwest Regional Office assigned two professionals to complete the Cultural Landscape Report. The authors produced a final draft document which underwent formal National Park Service review in June 1989. The 1987 General Management Plan states: A cultural landscape report is being prepared to guide the reestablishment of the lawn and other vegetation as they were when the Trumans were actively maintaining them. no new structures that would be out of context with this period will be allowed on the grounds. This precludes construction of a bus-stop-type inclement-weather shelter in front of the home or on the exterior walks.
