Dugout House
Newtonville, New Jersey, 2001
Remains of a "dugout" home in Newtonville. The dugout house method was used in rural southern New Jersey as an inexpensive form of home construction. The occupants would excavate the basement (dugout) and build the foundation, cover it with roofing material, and begin to live in the site. Later, with more funds, the rest of the house was added above. This home was owned and lived in by Reverend Warren during the 1960s-but the upper portion was not completed before he died.
