Pit and Quarry: New Research and a Recent Publication by Faculty Member Frank Matero

Faculty member Frank Matero's current PennPraxis project examining the cement and slate industries of Pennsylvania is illustrated in his recent article for Scenario Journal. The project focuses on the extractive industries in southeastern Pennsylvania, and working alongside Professor Matero are Historic Preservation graduate students Preston Hull and Amy Lambert.
