Unit 2 part 1

My historical place is fairly self explanatory. I want to learn more about what happened in 1937 because the river is such a big part of my life. I want to know not only about the devastation, but of the recovery of the city of Louisville. I know that it was a long process but to know that it went from under water to one of the top 25 cities in the country is fascinating.

This is a link to the Cincinnati Museum which was also hit hard by the flooding of the Ohio, they did a 70th Anniversary article about it.
