  • History is not just around you in Washington, you're most likely standing or driving on it as well. Take the bridge connecting Pennsylvania Avenue to Georgetown for example. This bridge doesn’t just carry traffic; it’s been carrying the very water Washingtonians drink and shower with since the Civil War. <br />
<br />
Until the 1850’s, Pennsylvania avenue ended at Rock Creek, the only bridge into Georgetown being the M Street bridge. More importantly however, Georgetown and Washington had no clean or dependable water supply, relying instead on a mishmash of natural springs throughout the area that were often disease-ridden. After a fire in the Library of Congress destroyed over 30,000 books, funding was approved by Congress to build an effective water delivery system for the growing Capital. The project was overseen by Montgomery Meigs, who devised a massive, ambitious aqueduct system spanning from Great Falls to the Washington Navy Yard. Using open conduits, tunnels and bridges to transport the water via gravity through three separate reservoirs, the aqueduct was one of the first major water projects in the United States and was celebrated as an engineering marvel upon its completion after eight years of construction. The Pennsylvania avenue bridge is just one part of that elaborate water system, and was celebrated in its own right, with the aqueduct pipes simultaneously serving as the main support for the bridge itself. The superstructure of the old bridge was replaced with a stone facade as part of an expansion plan in 1916. However, the original pipes remain after 150 years; hidden behind the stone and underneath our tires.

  • Water gushes through a canal lock on the historic C&O canal. As seen from Thomas Jefferson Street in the Georgetown Neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Short for Chesapeake & Ohio, the canal was intended to connect the eastern seaboard with the Ohio river valley region. With construction beginning in the 1830's, the canal was overtaken by the faster and more efficient B&O railroad, and construction was halted as far as Cumberland, Maryland.

  • On June 2nd and 3rd, 2019, a series of levies protecting the Missouri River bottom collapsed, letting in a torrent of water that inundated the entire area. Now, a family owned and operated general store that has been a beloved focal point of the Boonville community for nearly 100 years is now on the brink of closing for good due to damage from the flood. For fourth-generation owner Jim Snoddy, who runs the store with his brother Chris, the store holds a lifetime of memories and friendships. However, as FEMA funds continue to be denied to the county, his hope for a turnaround fades with each passing day.<br />
<br />
Scattered corn stalks are seen in a field along Route 40 outside of Rocheport on the morning of September 17th, 2019. The sliver of ashphalt cuts through a wide swath of land that was impacted by the flood earlier this year.

  • Jim Snoddy, co-owner of Snoddy’s Store, walks along the unlit store aisles. Once full shelves now stand empty with tags helpfully pointing out nonexistent products. The lights remain off and the glass doors that once stood at the entrance of the store were removed, leaving only metal security bars that more resemble an entrance to a prison cell. The current Snoddy’s building was completed in 1993, the same year of the flood that inundated the original Snoddy’s located a short distance away. The new building featured flood walls built into the store itself as a means of protecting it from future floods; however, the water that inundated Snoddy’s three months ago came not from outside but through the store’s drains, rising over two feet before receding.

  • Snoddy’s general store is reflected in a puddle of water outside the store parking lot on the night of Thursday, September 26, 2019. Without FEMA funds to help repair the damage from the June flood, the store will most likely be sold.
