Where You Can Go Stand

Which of these places has a museum, a marker, a park — and which has nothing at all. Sorted by how much of it you can actually see today.

Museum

0

There is a museum, heritage center or preserved building you can walk into.

    Park or refuge

    0

    The ground is public land — a park, refuge or historic site you can stand on.

      Living community

      0

      The town is still here and still governing itself. Go spend money in it.

        Marker only

        0

        A single marker or memorial. Bring the history with you, because the site won't supply it.

          Nothing marked

          0

          Nothing identifies what was here. This is what erasure looks like when it is complete.
