Rockford context
That furniture- and machine-tool-era industrial boom left Rockford with a housing stock built in distinct waves: dense east-side neighborhoods and bungalow-era blocks tied to the Rock River's water power, followed by a long run of postwar and subdivision construction radiating out into Loves Park, Machesney Park, and the other surrounding towns through the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. The Rock River's flood record -- including the 1965 flood, still the highest on record, and the damaging April 1973 flood -- is one reason storm and water-damage response stays in steady demand across the metro.
