HALS is for landscapes that have been "touched" by man, which is to say they may be "designed" or "vernacular". In either case they have been created by people. This as contrasted to a natural landscape. HALS drawings depict the landscape as it exists at "a moment in time" - current time. The historic narrative describes the site's history and explains how the landscape came to be as it is today.
