Arlington National Cemetery plans call for refined development
Arlington officials and the Commission of Fine Arts approved a development plan for the cemetery. The proposal emphasizes preserving Arlington as a sacred, simple memorial to soldiers, with new tree planting, building restorations, and a comprehensive layout extending from the mansion to the memorial bridge. It calls for warding off grotesque monuments, improving roadways, and extensive arboreal landscaping to honor World War I and Spanish War dead while maintaining historic character.
