According to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Plants and Gardens news Summer Issue, 1998 a 500-Year municipal forest project of the Virginia Urban Forest Council (VUFC) is a first ever of its kind in the United States.  Patterned after England's Woodland Trust, which was established in 1972 to save forests from encroaching urbanization, a 100-acre tract in the city of Virginia Beach will be managed and protected "essentially forever."  The project insures that all development decisions will be made for the greater good of the forest.  This far-sighted measure will afford residents of Virginia Beach and visitors to the area the opportunity to see the forest grow to full maturity over the course of many generations.  Scenic Virginia salutes the city of Virginia Beach and the VUFC for setting an example for the nation.
