Before ever being headquartered in Washington D.C., the U.S. Congress moved from New York to Philadelphia on this day in 1790. The radio was used for the first time for a presidential address on this day in 1923, when Calvin Coolidge addressed a joint session of Congress. In 1947, the Everglades were dedicated, and in 1969, the Rolling Stones' concert at Altamont Speedway in California exploded in violence and four people were killed.
