Scope and content
A new type of pre-fabricated house is being assembled at North 29th and Proctor Streets. The roof has been laid on this side of the building. Workers are preparing to place the facia board at the edge of the roof. Forms are laid by the front door to pour a concrete front stoop. It was anticipated that the panels used in this construction will be stocked by retail lumber dealers. There are no packaged houses. The sections can be adapted to almost any one-story design or plans are available where the sections are available. (T.Times, 1/24/1946, p.2)
