After 35 successful years in the design and construction industries, my next BIG PROJECT is my Lung Transplant. Some of you have already donated. That’s AMAZING! We need you to keep the momentum going, though. My GOAL is still wages for a pre-op Caregiver. It’s critical NOW. We’ve contacted individuals and local agencies. Please use the link to give what you can and circulate. 🙏🏽 Thank You.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH
Levittown Homes
Levittown is the name of several large suburban housing developments created for WWII Veterans in the United States and one in Puerto Rico by William J. Levitt and his company Levitt & Sons. ... Production was modeled on assembly lines in 27 steps with construction workers trained to perform one step. A house could be built in one day, with 36 men, when effectively scheduled. …Standard Levittown houses included a white picket fence, green lawns, and modern appliances. Sales in the original Levittown began in March 1947. … William J. Levitt refused to sell Levittown homes to people of color, and the FHA, upon authorizing loans for the construction of Levittowns, included racial covenants in each deed, making each Levittown a (government sanctioned) segregated community.
