Beginning as a small town on the banks of the Potomac, the
neighborhoods of Foggy Bottom and the West End grew into the
capital's industrial center at the head of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal, with factories, gasworks and breweries. The amalgam of
working-class row homes, stately mansions and mills largely
disappeared with the coming of the twentieth century, and in their
place came the federal government, George Washington University,
the Kennedy Center and the Watergate. With a collection of rare
vintage images, local authors Matthew Gilmore and Joshua Olsen have
compiled a stunning visual narrative of the evolution of these
historic Washington, D.C. communities.
