Miss Mann Looks to Cooperative Kitchen Reform in New York
A profile of Miss Prestonia Mann of New York advocating cooperative housekeeping as a business venture. Her plan centers a shared kitchen atop an apartment building with a caterer running a central dining room, a commissary for cooked foods, and elimination of much of the traditional kitchen work to improve economy and privacy. The concept, influenced by Charlotte Perkins Stetson and broader social shifts, envisions the co operative kitchen becoming common as home trades fade.
