Description
Pullman National Monument, established in 2015, is created to share the nationally significant Labor History stories of both the 1884 Pullman Labor Strike and the 1930's Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. In addition, the site reflects an innovative 1880's design that still informs today's urban planners with the intentional mix of manufacturing, residences, and worker amenities.
