Restoration of Old Economy

edit

Can someone add that a portion Old Economy was restored with PWA aid, amounting to construction costs of $32,164 and a project cost of $37,175. The work done with PWA aid was completed in July 1938. (from page 141 of Public Buildings:Architecture under the Public Works Administration 1933 to 1939 by C.W. Short-Public Works Administration and R. Stanley Brown-Public Buildings Administration Published by United States Government Printing Office Washington, 1939. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.244.84.25 (talk) 03:43, 26 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Nellie Bly

edit

Nellie Bly wrote an article about the last survivors of Old Economy back in 1888. Might be useful source material. https://thegrandarchive.wordpress.com/in-quaint-old-economy/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Griliopoulos (talkcontribs) 14:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
