    Abstract
    History and its interpretation are important to establishing individual and community identity as well as tools for economic growth through heritage marketing and tourism. Even with the public increasingly recognizing the value of history, developers continue to omit the history of the local landscape in the design and marketing of new residential communities. This thesis examines the benefits of incorporating historic site interpretation into new residential development. It also examines how the local government, community and developers are involved in the problem of the lack of history in new residential development and its solution. By looking at the site and history of Altama-Hopeton Plantation in Glynn County, Georgia, this thesis makes recommendations that can be applied to similar landscapes.
