Abstract

Opened in 1964, NALCREST is a suburban development built for retired members of the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) union and located about ten miles east of the City of Lake Wales in the state of Florida. Planned by Baltimore-based suburban developer Harry Myerberg, NALCREST mimicked other residential suburban communities—yet it stood apart because it was intended to be age- and occupation-restricted. As such, it stands both within and outside of prevailing ideas about post-World War II middle-class suburbia.
