Join David Pearson, former AHS president, to learn about how Arlington County planned transportation in the early 1960s and what we now have as a result. Our speaker will use the maps in the current Map Exhibit on the 2nd floor to explain the first General Land Use Plan (GLUP), show what was built, paths not taken, and a bridge too far. FREE! Come for the talk, stay to tour the museum.
