The US Capitol grounds have been the backdrop to over 200 years of memories of DC residents and visitors alike. These grounds, with the grey cobblestones, wide expanse of grass, and the Capitol majestically towering above, are where we gathered with our friends and family, rode our bikes up and down the giant hill, and stood at the marble steps, in awe of the power of the great white building. As Rosemary Freeman expressed in her story, it’s our stories that make this place sacred. This special episode, “Stories of an Unfenced Capitol” features the voices of more than 20 people who shared their memories of the Capitol grounds with us. Their stories show the importance of an unfenced Capitol to our community, our city and our country.
