GREENFIELD PRESERVATION AREA MASTER PLAN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1 PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK INTRODUCTION The Greenfield Preservation Area is situated immediately northwest of the entrance to the Botetourt Center at Greenfield on Route 220 in Botetourt County, Virginia. Located approximately five miles south of Fincastle and near the community of Amsterdam, this 925-acre, mixed-use development complex was purchased by the County in 1995 and occupies land historically associated with Greenfield, the mid- 18th century home of Colonel William Preston and his family. The Greenfield Manor House, which remained in the Preston family for over 200 years, burned in 1959. Historic resources associated with the Preston family that presently survive on the property include the Greenfield Slave Quarters and Kitchen, the Bowyer-Holladay House Ruins and Kitchen/Farm Manager’s House, the Preston Cemetery, the Gish Cemetery, and numerous archaeological sites dating to the prehistoric and historic periods. The original master plan for the development of the Botetourt Center at Greenfield identified a 28-acre tract (recommended to expand to 38 acres in February 2017) that included four of the six historic architectural resources. The original master plan for the Botetourt Center at Greenfield proposed relocating the Greenfield Slave Quarters and Kitchen to the Preservation Area. The purpose of designating this Preservation Area was to provide for the preservation and interpretation of the historic resources in an effective and efficient manner that would be accessible to the public while allowing for the development of the remaining land in the complex (Appendix A). GREENFIELD PRESERVATION AREA MASTER PLAN 3 PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK In 2015, Botetourt County proceeded with plans to relocate the Greenfield Slave Quarters and Kitchen to the designated Preservation Area. The County Board of Supervisors established the Greenfield Preservation Advisory Commission (GPAC) in January 2016, with members appointed in August 2016, to recommend a plan for the Preservation Area to preserve and interpret the historic structures, cemeteries and archaeological resources associated with the Greenfield property (Appendix B). The county completed the reclocation of the Greenfield Slave Quarters and Kitchen to the Preservation Area in February 2016. In consultation with the GPAC, the County then contracted Hill Studio in March 2017 to prepare the Greenfield Preservation Area Master Plan. The Hill Studio project team, which included Engineering Concepts and Mary Ann Anderson, worked closely with County staff and the GPAC during the summer of 2017 to compile site data, review existing materials, assess comparable heritage tourism sites, and solicit public and local stakeholder input. Following an intense, one-day design workshop, Hill Studio presented a conceptual master plan draft for the Greenfield Preservation Area to the public on July 11, 2017. The purpose of this master plan is to provide an effective and feasible strategy for the preservation and interpretation of the historic resources in the Greenfield Preservation Area so that county residents and visitors can understand and appreciate the significant role Colonel William Preston and Botetourt County played in the settlement of Southwest Virginia and beyond. Additionally, the surviving dependency buildings and their associated archaeological resources provide valuable insight into the cultural history of African Americans who lived and worked on the property from slavery through emancipation and independence. The master plan proposes to interpret these various stories, from Native American presence on the land to the present time, through a chronological system of trails and informative panels that connect the surviving resources. The plan also recommends improved integration of the Preservation Area to Context map of Greenfield within Botetourt County the surrounding Botetourt Center at Greenfield through connecting trails, vehicular access, public toilet facilities, and the completion of the Colonel William Preston Memorial located at the Greenfield Education Center. Finally, this report includes a strategy plan to fund and implement the development of the Greenfield Preservation Area in phases that can be undertaken by a combination of public and private initiatives. GREENFIELD PRESERVATION AREA MASTER PLAN INTRODUCTION 5 PROJECT BACKGROUND In 1995, Botetourt County purchased a 925-acre tract of land along the restricting development, buffers the Preservation Area from Route west side of Route 220 to develop the Botetourt Center at Greenfield 220.

  • William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement
    Journal of Backcountry Studies EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third and last installment of the author’s 1990 University of Maryland dissertation, directed by Professor Emory Evans, to be republished in JBS. Dr. Osborn is President of Pacific Union College. William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement BY RICHARD OSBORN Patriot (1775-1778) Revolutions ultimately conclude with a large scale resolution in the major political, social, and economic issues raised by the upheaval. During the final two years of the American Revolution, William Preston struggled to anticipate and participate in the emerging American regime. For Preston, the American Revolution involved two challenges--Indians and Loyalists. The outcome of his struggles with both groups would help determine the results of the Revolution in Virginia. If Preston could keep the various Indian tribes subdued with minimal help from the rest of Virginia, then more Virginians would be free to join the American armies fighting the English. But if he was unsuccessful, Virginia would have to divert resources and manpower away from the broader colonial effort to its own protection. The other challenge represented an internal one. A large number of Loyalist neighbors continually tested Preston's abilities to forge a unified government on the frontier which could, in turn, challenge the Indians effectivel y and the British, if they brought the war to Virginia. In these struggles, he even had to prove he was a Patriot. Preston clearly placed his allegiance with the revolutionary movement when he joined with other freeholders from Fincastle County on January 20, 1775 to organize their local county committee in response to requests by the Continental Congress that such committees be established.

  • The Present Authors Gave a Sketch of Letitia Preston Floyd
    Letitia Preston Floyd's "My Dear Rush" Letter Jim Glanville and Ryan Mays Copyright 2016 Introduction The present authors gave a sketch of Letitia Preston Floyd (1779- 1852) in the previous volume of the SmithfieldReview.! As background for the reader of this article, it may be brieflyreiterated that Letitia Preston Floyd was born on the Virginia frontier in the newly created Montgomery County. Her parents were the Scotch-Irish immigrant William Preston of Augusta County and Susanna Smith of Hanover County. In 1804 she married John Floyd in Kentucky and went on to become a plantation owner, the mother of twelve children (seven of whom survived to adulthood and marriage), and the First Lady of Virginia. The "My Dear Rush" letter is a 32-page manuscript writtenby Mrs. Floyd dated February 22, 1843. The authors of this article discovered the original copy of this document in January 2014 (after its being closely held within the Preston family for 161 years and ten furtheryears in a Smithfield closet) in a storage box at the Smithfield Plantation.2 The manuscript is in the form of a letter to her son Benjamin Rush Floyd and because of its opening salutation is referred to as the "My Dear Rush" letter. The letter was written at her home on the Cavan estate in Burke's Garden in Tazewell County, Virginia, at the instigation of the historian Lyman Draper. 3 The letter is in Mrs. Floyd's own hand and records many things that can be found nowhere else in the historical record. It is also a crucial document for understanding the European settling of southwest Virginia that was spearheaded by her great-uncle James Patton and her father William Preston.

    Addressing The Housing Affordability Crisis San Diego Housing Production Objectives 2018-2028 We’re About People “Increase the number of housing opportunities that serve low-income and homeless individuals and families in the City of San Diego” Strategic Plan Goal San Diego Housing Commission September 9, 2016 Message from the President & CEO September 21, 2017 Identifying solutions to the housing affordability crisis in the City of San Diego requires innovation, collaboration, and the will to take action. I commend and thank our City, County, State and Federal elected officials, as well as the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) Board of Commissioners, for demonstrating their commitment to all three. When SDHC released our landmark report, “Addressing the Housing Affordability Crisis: An Action Plan for San Diego,” on November 25, 2015, we identified 11 recommended actions at the Local, State and Federal levels to reduce housing development costs and to increase production. To date, action has been taken on nine of these 11 recommendations, including the first—to set annual goals for housing production. To facilitate the creation of these goals for the City of San Diego, SDHC, in collaboration with San Diego City Councilmembers Scott Sherman and David Alvarez, the Chair and Vice Chair, respectively, of the City Council’s Smart Growth and Land Use Committee, studied the City’s overall housing production needs, its current supply, as well as its capacity for additional homes. Although the City of San Diego’s housing needs are even higher than previously estimated, the good news is that the City has enough capacity to create sufficient housing to meet our 10-year needs, as identified in this report.
