Althouse House.

This stone house adjoins a concrete bridge and dam which was built around 1931 by C. Scott Althouse, a successful Reading chemical dye manufacturer, to provide direct current electricity to be used in a paint making process. This house is near the site where the lock-tenders house had been located during the time the Union Canal was operational along the Tulpehocken Creek (1827-1884).
Last week I published a nearly identical shot, made at approximately the same time, but with an infrared camera.
