Abstract: This report outlines the accomplishments of the Program to date, structured in two parts. Part I presents the Program’s background and strategy for addressing the challenges of preserving historic designed landscapes. It also highlights key achievements and lists reports generated through the Program. Part II provides a detailed, park-by-park account of the master planning process and outcomes for the twelve projects selected in the initial phase. Together, the report offers a comprehensive view of the Program’s approach, progress, and contributions to the conservation of culturally significant landscapes across multiple sites.
