Perspectives on the Barge Canal Podcast
The Pine Street Barge Canal is perhaps best known for being a superfund site, and most often makes the news because of the many attempts to develop it. But the Barge Canal is more than its contamination and potential for development. The Perspectives on the Barge Canal podcast aims to showcase the value of this land to all of the locals.
Episode 1: A Brief History
Featuring Andy Simon
Listen to Andy Simon, founding member of the Friends of the Barge Canal, talk about storied and little-told history of this land.
