The River Street Digital History Project concentrates on the history of the River Street Neighborhood, which was the historical home for most of the non-white population of Boise, Idaho. The Project centers on the creation of a website designed to disseminate digital copies of existing archival data, short segments of newly collected oral history interviews, and photographs from private collections. It is also the digital hub for information on the ongoing historic preservation and archaeology activities there.
