Conducting Field Surveys of Significant Architectural Resources from the Recent Past

This hour-long webinar shows participants how to complete a reconnaissance-level field survey using Highland Hills — a significant mid-1950s neighborhood in Bon Air, Virginia with 73 houses designed by Charles Goodman — as a case study. Goodman is best known for having designed the Hollin Hills in Alexandria and the main terminal at Reagan National Airport. After training, participants will be invited to participate in field surveys in early May. The completed Highland Hills surveys will be archived at the Department of Historic Resources.

No previous experience is required. Participants should be comfortable recognizing and describing basic building and site materials and forms.

This program is a collaboration between AIA Virginia, Modern Richmond, and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
