The Waco History Project is a joint effort of the Waco community to provide a resource base on Waco history and to generate curricula and other learning resources for teaching local history in the Waco and surrounding communities.
The Waco History Project (WHP) will connect people of all ages to the community by telling the story of Waco's diverse past.
Readers of the Waco Tribune-Herald have seen Waco History Project events, sometimes dovetailing with its Brazos Past features. We’ve explored areas like Sandtown , Calle Dos (Two Street), one-time suburb White City (it’s not what the name might imply), and long-lost Bridge Street , where black-owned businesses predominated.
