Cultural Landscape Report

Brackenridge Park Conservancy funded this Cultural Landscape Report to provide a holistic understanding of the entire landscape from ecological and cultural perspectives. As a long-term management and treatment document, the CLR:

• provides analysis of broad historical and contemporary contexts relevant to Brackenridge Park’s development and present circumstances;
• documents Brackenridge Park’s history;
• evaluates the health of the park’s biotic systems;
• defines the cultural significance of the landscape;
• evaluates the physical and visible integrity of the landscape;
• is the principal treatment document for the preservation of this cultural landscape; and
• is the primary tool for the site’s long-term management.
