UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the USA

I want to try and not over-represent sites on the list. I don’t think it is reasonable to list sites twice on a list like this just because the site crosses some state boarders. The map they have at the WHC doesn’t even have any boarders (to show that these belong to the world)..

Over-representation of certain sites gives a false image of the “percentage completed” and it gives them a false importance.

World heritage properties such as the Great Smoky Mountains National Park should therefore only be represented on the list in one state. In this case I’ve listed it “in” Tennessee, rather than North Carolina

Multi-entity properties such as the Kluane / Wrangell-St Elias / Glacier Bay / Tatshenshini-Alsek site should also only be listed once. In this case of course only Wrangell-St. Elias and the Glacier Bay National Parks are in the US

Of Monticello and the University of Virginia in Charlottesville I’ve only added Monticello, since it’s a more important building.
