Title A name given to the resource Collingwood Beach Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1888-1908 Description An account of the resource From approximately 1888 to 1900, Collingwood Beach was an African American resort, a getaway for church groups and fraternal organizations from the District of Columbia. A white steamboat Captain L.J. Woolen purchased the property in 1888 and built a bathhouse, pavilion, merry-go-round, swings and a “gravity railroad” (an early roller coaster). He began running excursions for African Americans seeking a getaway. The First Separate Battalion of the District of Columbia National Guard, an all Black unit, used the property in August 1891 as a training camp. Frederick Douglass and his daughter came and reviewed the troops. The property was later leased by African-American Steamboat operator J.W. Patterson who changed the name to Douglass Beach. Patterson later ran into difficulties when the White captain of the Jane Mosely, a steamboat he had leased, refused to embark for Collingwood Beach. The matter was later settled out of court. By 1908 the beach was reported as abandoned.
