Stay tuned for Eastern Market interviews…

In preparation for the 2009 re-opening of Capitol Hill’s beloved Eastern Market, the Overbeck Project has spent the past months interviewing people from the many groups associated with the Market: indoor merchants, farmers, outdoor vendors, public officials and others involved in the Market’s several reincarnations, especially the current revival that followed the 2007 fire. Thanks to the project’s long-time and newly recruited volunteers, this massive effort exceeds anything we’ve done previously.

We’ve got so many new transcripts that we’re still processing them for posting on this website. Please keep checking back here: we will continue to post the interviews throughout the summer and fall of 2009 as they are completed.
