THE UNBUILT BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY

 

A Digital Public History Project created by History 671: Introduction to Public History, UNC-Chapel Hill, Fall 2013, this interpretive exhibit is a companion project to Driving Through Time: The Digital Blue Ridge Parkway, a repository of Parkway historical materials hosted at the University of North Carolina Libraries.

The Unbuilt Blue Ridge Parkway exhibit brings together for the first time the stories of several Blue Ridge Parkway-related plans and proposals that were –- for a variety of reasons -– stillborn, killed, abandoned, or changed during the park’s now more than 75 year history.
