Title A name given to the resource New Deal Sites Place-Based Stories Use this item type for your second skill assignment, in which you will document New Deal-era sites through image, sound, and text. Date Include the date of your project here. October 15, 2019 Format Describe the format of the file(s) included in this item. 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.
