Gadling's picks for World Heritage sites: Round two

In February, we ran a series on the tentative list of possible U.S. World Heritage sites. There are 14 in all. At the end of the series there was a poll for readers to vote for the site most deserving of World Heritage honor. The paltry results are in. Six people voted and each person had a different idea of what is World Heritage worthy, except the two people who went for White Sands National Monument. Still, these six did narrow the choices. Not that I have anything against White Sands, but two people are not much of a majority. Let's try this again with a narrower list.

The five choices are:

  • Civil Rights Movement Sites
  • Dayton Aviation Sites
  •  Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks
  •  Thomas Jefferson Buildings
  • Mt. Vernon
  • Poverty Point National Monument and State Historic Site
