Ep. 1 -- The Neighborhood Under Your Feet
Every time you walk through Union Station — one of the most visited buildings in America — you are standing on top of a neighborhood that used to exist.It was called Swampoodle. Built by Irish immigrants fleeing the Great Famine in the 1840s. They had a church, a school, a baseball stadium, and a whole life. In 1907, the city demolished it to build a train station. Over 1,600 people displaced. The neighborhood erased so completely that most DC residents today have never heard its name.This is not just an Irish story. It is a DC story. And DC keeps telling it — with different people, different neighborhoods, different decades — over and over again.DC Untold is a limited series about the history that didn't make the monument.A production of Unofficial Monument Productions for Unofficial DC.Find us online: www.unofficialdc.com and IG/TT/YT: @Unofficial_DC
