Camden is an industrial city that built housing for the people who worked in it. Through the late nineteenth century and into the twentieth, the shipyards on the Delaware, the RCA Victor works and the Campbell Soup plant drew tens of thousands of workers, and the blocks that went up for them are still the city’s backbone: two- and three-story brick rowhouses and twins, built tight to the sidewalk, with tall narrow windows arranged in strict verticals. The most deliberate example is Fairview, laid out in 1918 as a planned garden village for shipyard workers, with its own curved street pattern and small brick and stucco houses. Older stock survives near Cooper Street. Very little of this housing has ever had a proper window replacement, and where it has, the units were usually forced into a masonry opening they did not fit.
Rowhouse work is measurement work. Every opening in a brick front gets measured individually, because 1890s bricklaying was not uniform and a century of settling has made it less so. We build units to the actual opening, keep the sightlines narrow so the front elevation still reads as a row, and follow proper containment on painted pre-1978 woodwork. Rear and upper-floor openings are checked against egress sizing before anything is ordered.
We will measure every opening in the house, front and back, and tell you plainly what has to be custom-built and what does not.
