About :

There is no city of Washington - it existed, but it no longer exists. There is the District of Columbia, which was a square with a side of 10 miles, but it is no longer one. Today it boasts about the famous urban plan of Pierre L'Enfant, but he himself called Washington a "pathetic village" in which congressmen, returning from work at night, wallowed in the ubiquitous mud. We will be extremely grateful for your support of the American Podcast: ➡︎ https://patronite.pl/podkastamerykanski Today we will tell you about how Americans built their capital. Why was a separate federal district created at all? Why couldn't the capital remain in Philadelphia or New York? Why was Washington for so long a dirty, dark town where no one wanted to live? Listen to stories about greedy developers and speculators, corruption, deals and deals, stubborn farmers, greedy cab drivers and stingy congressmen. And mosquitoes. Plus the Horror Channel, the Gęsiawka River, the Washington Monument's stone core and the cemetery in General Lee's Garden.
