Rim Village Historic
District
Beginning at the west end
of the promenade's parapet wall, 400 feet from the cafeteria
plaza, proceed to the junction of Rim Village Road and the
West Rim Drive, continuing in a line going southeast that
stays 25 feet south of Comfort Station #72 and then follow
the 7100 foot contour around the campground to a point where
it crosses the road to the concessioner's dormitory,
thereafter passing 50 feet south of the lodge parking and
going northeast along the promenade to a point 800 feet east
of the hotel, then back along the caldera edge but
encompassing Victor Rock and the Sinnott Memorial, to the
point of beginning.
Delete boundary
descriptions and UTM references on original form for the
Sinnott Memorial, Comfort Station #68 (mistakenly identified
as #65), and Comfort Station #72 by substituting those for
the Rim Village Historic District. The district's boundary
includes the four areas or zones in Rim Village (promenade,
plaza, campground, and lodge) historically part of the
designed landscape and encompasses the contributing features
identified in this amendment.
Munson Valley Historic
District
Beginning at the junction
of the Rim Drive and trail spur to the Castle Crest
Wildflower Garden, then in a southwesterly direction to
encompass the old road entrance to Park Headquarters and a
paint shed (Comfort Station #37) to a point 15 feet south of
the Machine Shop (building #5), continuing west to the outer
edge of the maintenance yard, then north to pass just west
of the Lady of the Woods, crossing the west branch of Munson
Creek and continuing to the residence road, going along the
road in a northwesterly direction to the Superintendent's
Residence, circling the residence, then east to the
Naturalist's Residence (building #20), passing north of the
latter structure, then in a southeast direction crossing the
east branch of Munson Creek and continuing to the point of
beginning.
Revision of the district
boundaries is necessary because the original form was based
on erroneous reference points contained in a 1984 draft.
That draft included all of the maintenance yard and an area
between the yard and road which runs through Munson Valley,
even though no contributing structure was located south of
the Machine Shop. Subsequent cultural landscape
recommendations for the site, published in 1991, did not
identify any individual features in the area south of the
Machine Shop as contributing to a historic landscape. This
portion of the district, totaling 5 acres, should be deleted
and total acreage of the district revised upward from the
7.5 acres indicated on the original form.
Acreage: Approximately 26
acres
