CULTURAL LANDSCAPE REPORT FOR CHARLESTOWN NAVY YARD x ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report was a collaborative effort of the staff at the Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation and the Boston National Historical Park. At the Olmsted Center, Chris Stevens, Margie Coffin Brown (Project Lead), and Patrick Eleey compiled the site history using primary and secondary historical documents at the Boston National Historical Park archives. Chris Stevens prepared the existing conditions section. Chris Stevens and Margie Coffin Brown prepared the analysis and treatment sections of the report. Ryan Reedy and Chris Stevens prepared the period plans, the existing conditions plans, and treatment plans for the document. Robert Page, Charles Pepper, and David Uschold provided overall project guidance, and Lauren Meier and Jeff Killion reviewed the draft document. At Boston National Historical Park, Superintendent Terry Savage and Ruth Raphael provided overall project guidance. Ruth Raphael also coordinated a series of very informative and dynamic charrettes, which aided in identifying key treatment issues and alternative solutions. Steve Carlson provided tremendous assistance drawing from his concurrent work on the revised Historic Resource Study. Steve Carlson and Ruth Raphael benefited the project greatly with comprehensive reviews of the drafts. Phil Hunt, Marcy Beitel, Gene Gabriel and Tom O’Neil provided input on site conditions and issues. Former Navy Yard employee and park maintenance supervisor Dave Rose walked the site with the authors and provided information on its recent history. The compilation of an extensive amount of information about the Charlestown Navy Yard would not have been possible without the dedication of the park staff to preserving the legacy of the Navy Yard.
