Summary:
River of Resilience is an adaptation of Krista Schlyer’s book, River of Redemption: Almanac of Life on the Anacostia. The book and story map describe the often-tragic history of this river and its ecological degredation, as well as more recent efforts to restore the river. This story is told alongside numerous evocative photographs by the author.
The story map is a collaboration between Schlyer, the International League of Conservation Photographers, and the Esri Story Maps team, with generous support from the District Department of Energy and Environment, and in partnership with the Anacostia Waterfront Trust.
