The National Park Service’s Mission 66 program attempted to modernize the service by introducing new visitor facilities, recreational structures, trails and fixtures that we come to expect from the NPS today. This talk will explore the history and impact of this program across the Outer Banks including the visitor centers at the Wright Brothers Memorial and Fort Raleigh National Historic Site.   

Dr. George Jaramillo is the Historical Architect for the Outer Banks Group of the National Park Service. His work explores the entangled narratives of the historic built environments and its current use to contemporary and future societies.
