they are at one of the entrance stations at grand teton national park. 's in the extreme northwest corner of wyoming. i have spent a fair amount of time there. it is rugged, remote, and even those who have visited there haven't seen all of the park because the roads are fairly few and far between. there's an awful lot of wilderness area. there are a lot of places where vehicles simply do not go. we've been told in that report from our laura ingle a few moments ago that the body has been found has not yet been identified. it may not be possible to identify it at this point, depending on how long it has been out there. there are wolves in teton national park. there are grizzly bears. there are any number of scavengers who may have done something to the body that apparently has been found. so we are back there looking at the podium there where this news conference is about to begin. so ted, if you were running the investigation, the search for brian laundrie, and i don't know, do you call it a missing person's search at this point? do you call it a search fo

handmade so not machine manufactured with that kind of hand craftsmanship we talked about in terms of national park design, rustic park design, this idea of the craftsmanship. as you would drive down the parkway you would see this colonial style, although nobody built a colonial style like that for an automobile in the 1700s. we have that characteristic. the roadbed which was designed in concrete and exposed aggregate so it has a pebbled texture and a yellow color to mimic historic road, perhaps, a historic prafl road although it was, again, designed for car speeds of around between 30 and 50 miles per hour depending on the section. in contrast a series of bridges were designed to cross over the tidal estuaries which flood from the james river and these were designed in modern concrete so that when you looked down the roadway you would see colonial style bridges but if you looked out your car window as you were driving along the road you would see modern concrete style bridges. here is a view of one of those bridges. we can see this streamlined modern forms. we talked about modern architecture and

blue ridge parkway finished in 1970, it is one of the last major parkway's constructed by the national park service. natchez trace in mississippi lingers on, also 500 mile road, along a former indian trail, also extensive. but by the 19 seventies, people weren't building park wait anymore, right? and we said that in the 1930s where the heyday of the parkway, and indeed, bridge parkway begun in the thirties, finished in the 19 seventies, right? this long road. why why does it take so long? why do parkway's fall off after the 1930s? for a couple of reasons. after world war ii, there is an increasing emphasis in the country on transportation as people begin to use roads just for scenic travel and more for getting from point a to point b, people's priorities in roadway design changed. in the 19 forties and fifties, there was a engineering movement away from the parkway to something called the complete highway, and i love the phrase on the tagline for the complete highway movement which was, safety, utility, economy and beauty, all parts of harmony. okay? which sounds really great but except for
