Labor Shortage Strains Waterloo Building Efforts
A severe labor shortage grips Waterloo, delaying many construction projects. Excavations for the James Black building and the gas company plant at Park Avenue and Commercial Street are slowed by few available teams. Builders report scarce workers across all levels from laborers to skilled mechanics, with some plans abandoned due to the inability to secure men and teams. The shortage extends to farmers with idle teams who might otherwise find steady work, and overall dwellings will take longer to complete this winter. The city’s rapid growth over five years makes the impact more visible along the extensive streetcar routes.
