Williams, 2006 Computer under construction at an IBM production facility in Research Triangle Park, 1984. Photograph by Billy Barnes. North Carolina Collection, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Library. Research Triangle Park, the largest planned research center in the United States, was created in 1959 through the efforts of Governor Luther Hodges [2] and hundreds of scientists, politicians, and business leaders. Located between Raleigh [3] and Durham [4] and the Triangle's three acclaimed universities-the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill [5], Duke University [6], and North Carolina State University [7]-Research Triangle Park (RTP) in 2006 encompassed 7,000 acres and was home to more than 100 research and development organizations employing 38,000 North Carolinians. Smaller but highly successful research parks also existed in Charlotte [8], Greensboro [9], Rocky Mount, and elsewhere, playing an important role in the diversification of the state's economy. The need for a redirection of economic development away from traditional products such ast extiles [10], tobacco [11], and furniture [12] was envisioned in the early 1950s by some of North Carolina's morep rogressive [13] leaders. In 1952 Howard Odum, a renowned UNC-Chapel Hill sociologist and founder of the university's Institute for Research in Social Science [14], voiced a number of ideas about cooperative research centers that could benefit the state by combining the strengths of its three research universities. State leaders considered how these institutions could become a foundation for economic development.

  • The Indian Trading Path and Colonial Settlement Development in the North Carolina Piedmont
    THE INDIAN TRADING PATH AND COLONIAL SETTLEMENT DEVELOPMENT IN THE NORTH CAROLINA PIEDMONT Gladys Rebecca Dobbs A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Geography Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by: Dr. John Florin, Chair Dr. Thomas Whitmore Dr. Melinda Meade Dr. Peter Robinson Dr. Carole Crumley © 2006 Gladys Rebecca Dobbs ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT GLADYS REBECCA DOBBS: The Indian Trading Path and colonial settlement development in the North Carolina Piedmont (Under the direction of John Florin) This is a work of historical geography examining the role of an Indian-origin transportation route in the development of the colonial settlement system that emerged in the North Carolina Piedmont during the mid 18th century. This system has evolved in modern times into an important polycentric urban region, and the area's current inhabitants attribute this pattern to the Indian route, the Indian Trading Path. The relationship between the route and settlement development has not previously been tested, however. Previous work in settlement development geography has in fact treated the North American colonial landscape as a blank slate and failed to take account of landscape features left by an area's earlier occupants. This work comprised a process of transforming archival data—several thousand records from the earliest documented European settlement of the area—to geographic information in a GIS (geographic information system) and then to geographic knowledge through analysis of spatial and temporal pattern in the GIS.
