Listen "RIHP 10: Gloria De Paola, "Garden City Used to be a Coal Mine!""
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I talk with historian and writer Gloria De Paola about the coal mine that used to exist where Garden City in Cranston currently sits. Did you know that in 2001 a giant hole opened up in the parking lot? Neither did I, but this explains why.
Rhode Island dodged a major bullet when they found out that the coal was inferior and wasn't capable of sustaining an industry, despite the plethora of efforts.
