Episode Synopsis

This week's episode is about Mill Creek Valley.

Around the turn of the last century, the area between
Union Station and Grand along Market Street was a bustling community. Mill Creek Valley was home to a large African American community. Victim to "urban renewal" and "slum clearance", Mill Creek Valley was razed and its residents
displaced throughout the city.
