The following compilation of Most Endangered Historic Sites listings is composed of the first two years of the program (2000 and 2002) when it was administered (bi-annually) by the Preservation Alliance of Virginia, and following the merger of that organization with Preservation Virginia in 2004, annual lists from 2005 to the present. The following updates and status reports for each listing are believed to be current as of the posting of this document in August 2014. Where available, pertinent links to news stories and reports are included to help contextualize listings but are in no way exhaustive. Each listing has also been “graded” into four categories as a quick way to reference its current status. While the particulars of each site or issue are unique and nuanced, the following four categorizations can be used to approximately characterize each listing: SAVED: The immediate threat to a resource has been overcome and is not likely to reappear in the foreseeable future LOST: The resource has been demolished or its integrity altered enough to jeopardize its register eligibility STILL ENDANGERED: The threat present at the time of listing is still active, unresolved, and/or could likely reappear in the foreseeable future WATCH LIST: The resource is not currently, actively endangered but may still face threats and should continue to be monitored

Using five self-guided auto loop tours, Blue Ridge Roadways introduces its readers to a sixteen-county area in the Blue Ridge region of Virginia. Following a format similar to those used in publications from HandMade in America, the tours, or "trails," include "stops" every 15 minutes and larger cultural "hubs" for visits of two to four hours. The sites offer insight into the history and culture of rural Virginia and display some of America's most dramatic scenery. These stops include historic buildings, parks, museums, restaurants serving local fare, natural phenomena, and commercial businesses that function as windows into the past. - Publisher.
