Concrete in Boston: Revolution and Evolution

Join us for Bill Kuttner’s talk on concrete in Boston. 

The age of reinforced concrete began at Harvard’s Soldiers Field in 1903. It immediately became indispensable worldwide as a construction material. The Boston area abounds with examples of how the use of reinforced concrete evolved. Thanks to its durability many notable examples are still around, for better or for worse. You be the judge!

This project was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
