Digital Photograph Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. The site displays a trademark of many New Deal projects: focusing on economic stimulation by creating jobs for the unemployed through construction, as well as working to build things that were a step up from what had been the previous norm. The initial point of the Arcola School was to create construction jobs, and the continuing mission was to provide a better environment for children to learn. Given the climate of the 1930s, the school was a project meant to highlight the importance of retaining focus on the future, and how families would eventually heal from the Depression. I used only my phone to document the source, through digital photography, video, and audio recording. Modern technology like smartphones certainly makes it easier and more efficient to document these sources, as opposed to the longer time it would have taken in the '30s to photography the school. The style of documentation has changed very little in its essence, but the methods with which we are provided now are much more time-efficient in the documentation process.

Title A name given to the resource Arcola Elementary School Subject The topic of the resource Image documenting the exterior of the Arcola Elementary School in Aldie, VA. Description An account of the resource The Arcola Elementary School was originally constructed in 1939, as part of the New Deal's Work's Progress Administration. The school was larger than many other traditional schools throughout the country. Built during a period of segregation, it was also Loudoun County's first school for white students. The school was eventually converted to a community center in the 1970s until it's closing in the early 2000s.

Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. This now overgrown site pays tribute to the workers of the CCC and showed me that not everything they did lasted as long as some other projects such as the state parks. This fire trail would have required so much painstaking labor to build yet it is now overgrown and is extremely hard to find. I decided to document this site using my phone to capture it's beauty and remoteness, plus this modern day technology allowed me to show others what the site looks like without then actually having to be there. However, technology can't capture the work the CCC team put into this site or the difficulty that came with finding the overgrown fire trail. I believe it is because it has been mostly forgotten that it plays more importance in our learning of history because something that required that much hard labor should not be forgotten.

I believe the stories that can be told throguh this site are the experiences of the workers. Diving deeper into that you can also learn their stories such as how they ended up rebuilding the grounds for one of the greatest monuments in our history.This is significant to the history of the 1930s due to the fact that this was part of the Capitol Parks Improvement Program. I decided to use an iPhone camera to document my experience at the site. I believe modern technology provides a faster way of sharing and communicating images that the 1930s did not. For instance, the instant I took my picture I could have instantly shared it with my friend, but in the 1930s I would have been restricted and would not have been able to immediately share my experience.

Title A name given to the resource Washington Monument Grounds Description An account of the resource As part of a larger Capital Parks improvement program assisted by the PWA, WPA, and CCC, New Deal workers did significant work in the grounds immediately surrounding the Washington Monument: “New entrance roads from 14th-st constructed; 15th-st widened and repaved thru the grounds; 16th-st closed thru the grounds and street area replaced by lawn; swimming pools removed and areas graded and landscaped” (Washington Daily News). WPA crews also shored up the north and south ends of the monument grounds to protect the Federal Triangle from floods. Crews may have done flood control work on multiple occasions; the WPA’s Work: A Journal of Progress noted flood control work on the site in 1936, while the Washington Post reported the building of a dike in 1938.

Upon visiting the site, it is disappointing at first to see that none of the original structure of Camp Recovery remains. It's memorial plaque is placed inside the fire station, rather than outside, seemingly hidden much like the remains of Camp Recovery. Upon consideration though, the Coles Fire Department is a living legacy of Camp Recovery. Since the fire tower was removed from Camp Recovery in 1988, the Coles Fire Station has stood in it's place, a marker of the efforts towards fire safety that the men of Camp Recovery worked so hard for. There is actually construction underway to tear down the old Fire Station which was replaced in 2017 by the current fire station. While there has been turn over after turnover of buildings on this land, one thing remains: the purpose of Camp Recovery in keeping Prince William County safe from fires.

Two photographs (jpeg), an audio recording (mp4), and a text file detailing my impressions of the site. Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. This site does not lend itself to the passing on of a historical narrative in the way that one might expect. Yet, I feel that it is important to acknowledge its importance. The Fairfax City Sewer project in the late 1930’s was a very expensive endeavor, and provided work for many whom otherwise may have been left destitute. The sewer itself was built to improve sanitation and quality of life for everyone in Fairfax City, and furthermore allows for us to maintain the certain comforts of life that are often taken utterly for granted. I think that because of that effect, even something as base and unglamorous as the building of a sewer network can still be seen as significant, especially for those who live or work in Fairfax today. I used my iPhone 8 to document the site, using photography and sound recording. I think that this method is very similar, albeit far easier to manage, to the methods used in documentation in the 1930’s. While they would set out their phonographs and start recording audio, and snapping photos in black and white, modern technology allows me to do the very same on a device no larger than my hand. This ease of technology is incredible by comparison, and yet accomplishes the very same goals as those which preceded it.

Earlier this year I first encountered the Cathedral of Learning while on a trip to the University of Pittsburgh where my sister is a student. She recounted that this is the largest academic building in the western hemisphere and has been affectionately referred to as Cathy by the students. Considering the magnitude of this building and its original commission date (1921) and its completion date (1934) it is not unlikely that the project was originally postponed because of the Great Depression. Eventually it was used as construction site through the CWA to help employ more people seeking work in the area. It is particularly interesting to revisit Cathy not as a tourist but as a student completing my work. It's towering arches and Gothic embellishments have been relegated to the backdrop of everyday life as students move towards their classrooms. This I think is the most interesting thing about the project and this building and my ability to capture it all on my phone. This documentary project becomes more about observing the ordinary lives of people as they make use of the foundations that were built for them. This site highlights the ordinary lives of the students who attend school at the University of Pittsburgh and in this way echos older documentary styles.
