Book Fort Stanwix National Monument

Download or read book Fort Stanwix National Monument written by Joan M. Zenzen and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the history of Fort Stanwix and documents how the people of Rome, New York, partnered with the National Park Service to create Fort Stanwix National Monument, a reconstructed log-and-sod Revolutionary War fort located in the center of the city. Initially undertaken as part of Rome's urban renewal effort to revive a failing economy through tourism, the fort's reconstruction exemplifies how a regional interest successfully engaged the National Park Service in achieving its goals. Using extensive documentation and oral history interviews, historian Joan M. Zenzen examines the full sweep of the site's history by looking back at the 1777 siege that helped turn the tide at Saratoga, describing political commemorations during the turn of the twentieth century, detailing events leading to urban renewal and fort reconstruction in the 1970s, and explaining how the park's superintendents have managed this fort. She also discusses four important themes in historic preservation—authenticity, reconstruction, reenactment, and memory—to understand the processes that resulted in the establishment of Fort Stanwix National Monument. Tied to these themes is the idea of partnerships, a key ingredient that has kept the national park site engaged with such local communities as Rome businesses, Oneida Six Nations, New York State historic sites, regional tourism boards, and reenactment groups.

Book excerpt: Located in the center of downtown Rome, New York, Fort Stanwix currently experiences several transportation-related issues affecting visitor access to the park and overall visitor experience. As a follow-up to a 2006 Alternative Transportation Study, the goals of this report are threefold: 1) to update the 2006 study's existing conditions report to reflect recent changes that have occurred in and around the park, 2) to evaluate five specific areas of concern to the park, which were identified in the 2006 study, and 3) to identify opportunities to a) address these areas of concern; b) improve visitor experience at the park; and c) strengthen the park's relationship with the city by furthering city and county goals. The five areas of concern to the park are nonmotorized trail connections, vehicular signage and wayfinding, parking, pedestrian access, and shuttle feasibility. Findings for each of these focus areas are summarized.
