Concrete slabs?

[edit]

Concrete construction was very new technology in the 1840's and I question if it would have been in use in a frontier boom town like Atlanta was at the time. Atlanta Magazine's article on Snake Nation and Slabtown states they used cast off slabs of wood from Norcross's saw mill. http://www.atlantamagazine.com/crime-city/the-most-lawless-year-in-atlantas-history/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.180.27.83 (talk) 20:55, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and changed the paragraph based on the earliest versions of the article and the Atlanta Magazine piece. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.180.27.83 (talk) 21:36, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
