Today we are headed out of the city and up north to discover the history of Beaver Dam Swimming Club! Once a marble quarry, you will surely recognize some of the places built with this stone (both our Mount Vernon Washington Monument AND at least part of the one in DC?!) This is the first video in our three-part summer series supported by PNC Bank, so stay tuned for another summery episode soon!

This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." We record short videos about different historic places all over Baltimore and post them on our Facebook page, YouTube channel, and website. For more information or to become a member of Baltimore Heritage, check out: baltimoreheritage.org/support
