Full Episode: South Bend, Indiana | Main Streets

The history of this midwestern city is rooted in the river it sits on -and how it’s had to evolve with industry’s past and present...Oh, and also a very famous University that’s next door.

Established in 1865, South Bend saw a business boom in industry thanks to the St. Joseph River. Studebaker, Oliver Chilled Plow, and Singer Sewing machines were just a few of the big names. But we can’t forget the University of Notre Dame. It’s a huge influence on economy and culture in South Bend to this day.
