The Blue Ridge Mountains themselves are not destructive in that there are no volcanoes.
The mountains were thrust up long ago as North America collided with the other continents to form Pangaea. At one point, the Appalachian chain would have looked more like the Himalayas today.
I'm still looking for more info, but I've seen it say constructive.

A little bit of both.

The area of Lake Blue Ridge is 13.355 square kilometers.
Lake Ridge Academy was created in 1963.
A lake is constructive because it supports and benefits wildlife. Lakes provide hydration for many animals and it's the home of many organisms.

In considering whether landslides are a constructive or destructive force we need to look at what might be created or destroyed by one. Depending on where it occurs, a landslide may destroy: * a hillside * vegetation such as a forest * buildings * roads It may also create: * a lake (by creating a new dam) * a plain (by filling in part of a valley or levelling a slope) * a scree ((by removing vegetation) * a mudpile * a rockpile. We generally consider landslides as destructive, because although they may create things, they do destroy other things in the process, and these are things we are used to having there or desire to have there. They also cause temporary chaos and are unplanned, so their destructive aspect is much more significant. See the Geonet link below for photos and information about a landslide in September 2007 that dammed the Young River and created a new 2.5km lake in Mt Aspiring National Park, Fiordland, in the South Island of New Zealand. The new lake is still there but it is not known whether the dam will be permanent or breached by heavy rain at some point. See the other link for the latest information from the Department of Conservation on the safety of hiking/tramping on the Gillespie Pass track which goes up this valley.
