New Deal places in Washington County

Devil's Den was created on October 13, 1933, and a CCC company of young men from North Dakota arrived a week later.

Natalie Smith Henry used her father, brother and brother-in-law as models for "Local Industries" (1940), which shows Springdale's farm economy: a poultry buyer with a chicken, children feeding hens, and a buyer haggling over strawberries, with farms and the Ozark hills behind.

Springdale's New Deal post office was built in 1936.

The University of Arkansas had planned a new chemistry building since 1927, but the Depression stalled it.

This three-story brick men's dormitory at the University of Arkansas was split into three units with their own entrances and housed 122 students.

After the library and chemistry building, the University of Arkansas got another Public Works Administration loan and grant for three more buildings.

The Public Works Administration paid for the University of Arkansas Field House, finished in 1937, with a 1935 loan that also covered a men's dormitory and more stadium seats.

Ozark Hall, first called the Classroom Building, was one of three University of Arkansas buildings built with a second round of Public Works Administration money, designed by Haralson and Mott.

The Public Works Administration paid for most of the University of Arkansas's Depression-era building, but the WPA built the stadium, now Donald W.

Before this library was built with Public Works Administration money, the University of Arkansas kept its books in an administration building that wasn't fireproof.
