Epoxy flooring in a township renamed for a Massachusetts battle
Lexington began as the colonial Saxe Gotha Township before being renamed in 1785 for the Massachusetts Revolutionary War battle, with the county seat relocated to a sand ridge in 1820 and the town incorporating in 1861 just before the Columbia to Augusta Railroad and an 1890 textile mill fueled its growth. Few townships anywhere renamed themselves for a battle fought hundreds of miles away.
What that means for an epoxy flooring project
Epoxy flooring on one of Lexington's 1890s textile-mill-era properties should account for concrete slabs poured to that period's standards. Assuming railroad-era construction applies here overlooks the area's earlier Saxe Gotha township roots.
