I always liked this bit of lore from the Sunset District of San Francisco:
> It is not surprising that Doelger was a great admirer of Henry Ford, and in some ways, the Sunset rowhouses were the "Model T's" of housing. [...] It was not uncommon for the framing crews to race one another down two sides of one street to see which crew could complete framing their side first.
