Episode 34: The Many Lives Of The Long Barrack
Imagine pointing at the Alamo: most people would probably point to the famous Church with the iconic arch. But really, the Alamo was a bustling four-and-a-half acre community anchored by its oldest building, the Long Barrack.
Today we reveal the many lives of the Long Barrack, dating back nearly 300 years as missionary housing, evolving into a military outpost and hospital, then later the subject of fierce debate over historic preservation. Featuring the Alamo’s Director of Interpretation Tom Castanos and the Alamo’s Former Senior Director of Interpretation Sherri Driscoll.
