Development Concept Plan: Guinn Woods Administrative Site, Gettysburg National Military Park, Pennsylvania
The plan presents the National Park Service's proposal for improving management and restoring the landscape of Gettysburg National Military Park by creating a new administrative and operations center and visitor activity area at the Guinn Woods site. The current dispersed locations of the park's different administrative and operational functions create serious difficulties for the efficient management of the park. Also, many existing NPS structures and activities intrude on the historic scene, and the activities compete with space needed for battlefield visitor activities. The Guinn Woods site is outside the primary historic landscape and considerably impacted by previous development (an amusement park), and its purpose will be to concentrate all development incompatible with other park activities and purposes.
