Title A name given to the resource Unit Brick & Tile Company Description An account of the resource This pioneering company was located east of Union Street just south of the LIRR tracks in Port Jefferson Station. The factory opened in 1910 and was one of the largest concerns of its kind on Long Island. It could manufacture 12,600 U-shaped concrete blocks (size - 10"x8"x2") in a day. The emerging use of these fireproof concrete bricks was considered more economical and safe than wood construction. Several buildings and homes on Long Island were constructed of these unit bricks and some still stand today. One can be found at the east end of Hallock Avenue on the north side, as well as the Garden City post office Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Photograph compliments of the Comsewogue Public Library Archive Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource JPEG https://localhistory.cplib.org/files/original/02b22b51ef15d903e3114f7e403e7e69.jpg d53d092f6a3c0d9df3dadc457e035380 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
