An
abandoned building in Concrete City, near Nanticoke, Pennsylvania, an early example of International Style architecture built as company housing in 1911 for select employees of the Delaware, Lackawana and Western Railroad's coal division in Nanticoke. It was eventually taken over by the Glen Alden Coal Company that, uninterested in paying for required improvements and unable to demolish it due to its robust construction, abandoned the property in 1924
