Title

Levitt and Sons, Inc. Constructs the Strathmore Houses in Stony Brook, Ny

What occurred

After the success of Levittown, Levitt and Sons, Inc. began looking for other places to construct planned communities. The Strathmore was one of these smaller planned communities, which they built in Stony Brook because they saw the growing popularity of suburbanization in the area. This likely brought mush of the same environmental toll that the original Levittown brought.
