| Publisher Description: Explore the historic streetscapes of Leesburg, Virginia, and how they've changed over time. Established in 1758, Leesburg experienced steady growth in its first 200 years, blossoming from a small crossroads community into a thriving commercial, agricultural, social, and government center. Comparing historic images from the Thomas Balch Library, Leesburg Planning Department, Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority and Loudoun Museum with current views of the town, Leesburg resident and preservation planner Annie Laurie McDonald explores the town's historic streetscapes and how they have changed over time in response to growth throughout the Northern Virginia region. |
