Help map the impact of the New Deal in California

Your memories and archival materials are needed to help document the impact of the New Deal in California!!

 

California's Living New Deal Project is an unprecedented collective effort to inventory and interpret the impact of New Deal public works projects on the Golden State. We invite informants to contribute information and photographs to help us map the vast matrix of public buildings, parks, and infrastructure we have come to take for granted. Through this archaeological dig into California's lost history, we are revealing an indispensable but invisible landscape while laying the groundwork for a national inventory we wish to host in the Department of Geography.

See http://livingnewdeal.berkeley.edu/ for more information.
