As of Saturday, June 1st, 2013, the Living New Deal mapping project has marked 3,784 New Deal sites, structures, and pieces of art that we still use & enjoy today. Thousands more are awaiting discovery and documentation. Click here to go to the interactive Living New Deal map.
Also, read the Living New Deal's June 2013 Newsletter. There are articles about the U.S. Post Office, workers' rights, a European New Deal, women in the WPA, an endangered historic building, American infrastructure, and several recently published books about the New Deal.
And don't forget to visit a state or national park this summer. Chances are, the New Deal had some role in creating or improving it. Take a break from the rat race and breathe in the tranquility you can find in a New Deal park.
Read, See, and Breathe the New Deal!
