Image information
A common feature of Eastern cities during the 1st half of the 20th century was
the construction of block upon block of "row homes" for the rising middle class.
This block of row homes was based on prototypes still readily seen in Reading,
and was constructed using cardboard for the basic structure along with styrene
for the architectural trim and bay windows. Rails and posts are from Grandt
Line. Jerry remarks that it seemed to take as long to paint these buildings as
it did to build them!
