H Street in the 1920s -A Snapshot

Rebuilding Place in the Urban Space has an interesting bit of census info from 9th & H Streets in 1920. Click on the all sizes option for a readable version. Very cool. This is interesting, because, not only do you get a sense of where people are from at that time (lots of immigrants), you also see a bit about education & employment. The image appears as part of Richard's larger response to the City Paper article on the District's shrinking population.
