Scope and Contents
Blueprint submitted by renowned landscape architect Warren H. Manning that proposed a dramatic expansion of the VMI Post and the relocation of many buildings. The blueprint also included a proposal for a broad tree-lined vista linking VMI and Washington and Lee University. A proposal submitted by architect Bertram Goodhue was ultimately selected, so Manning's plan was never used.
