- Resumen:
Between 1919 and 1925, Kate Gleason built 75 homes in two East Rochester, NY, subdivisons—Concrest and Marigold Gardens. The homes were constructed with reinforced concrete walls and floors, had wood roofs, and were equipped with built-in garages, bookcases, kitchen cabinets, and other features that were advanced for their day. The homes are notable not only because they were constructed by one of the earliest female concrete contractors and ACI members, but also because they have survived for over 80 years with minimal repair. An update on these landmark homes is provided in this article.
