Historic structure report. 330 $aThis book looks at the history of Fort Stanwix and documents how the people of Rome, New York, partnered with the National Park Service to create Fort Stanwix National Monument, a reconstructed log-and-sod Revolutionary War fort located in the center of the city. Initially undertaken as part of Rome's urban renewal effort to revive a failing economy through tourism, the fort's reconstruction exemplifies how a regional interest successfully engaged the National Park Service in achieving its goals.Using extensive documentation and oral history interviews, historian Joan M. Zenzen examines the full sweep of the site's history by looking back at the 1777 siege that helped turn the tide at Saratoga, describing political commemorations during the turn of the twentieth century, detailing events leading to urban renewal and fort reconstruction in the 1970s, and explaining how the park's superintendents have managed this fort. She also discusses four important themes in historic preservation?authenticity, reconstruction, reenactment, and memory?to understand the processes that resulted in the establishment of Fort Stanwix National Monument. Tied to these themes is the idea of partnerships, a key ingredient that has kept the national park site engaged with such local communities as Rome businesses, Oneida Six Nations, New York State historic sites, regional tourism boards, and reenactment groups. 606 $aHistoric buildings$xConservation and restoration$zNew York (State)$zRome 606 $aFortification$xConservation and restoration$zNew York (State)$zRome 606 $aHistoric preservation$zNew York (State)$zRome 607 $aFort Stanwix National Monument (Rome, N.Y.) 607 $aFort Stanwix National Monument (Rome, N.Y.)$xHistory 607 $aRome (N.Y.)$xBuildings, structures, etc 607 $aFort Stanwix (Rome, N.Y.)$xSiege, 1777 615 0$aHistoric buildings$xConservation and restoration 615 0$aFortification$xConservation and restoration 615 0$aHistoric preservation 676 $a974.7/62 700 $aZenzen$b Joan M$01099476 712 02$aNorth Atlantic Historic Preservation Center (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910650354603321 996 $aFort Stanwix National Monument$94189924 997 $aUNINA
