Orange Housing logo
As a property manager in Syracuse, NY during the late 1990s, Donna Glassberg noticed a problem that needed a solution.  Renters struggled to find housing in an easy, accessible way. 

While walking in her Syracuse University neighborhood, Donna would see cars pulled off to the side of the road, writing numbers off the for-rent signs plastered on the sides of the buildings.  She thought this was a terribly inefficient way to find housing for students and faculty moving to the area.  Since she was immersed in the industry and understood the process well, she knew she could create something that would help both her employers and her renters to connect in a more efficient way.

Universal Step

As a self-proclaimed "grunt," he says he is more of a builder/inventor than a business man.  It is the inventor in him, as well as a need to transition his business to be less labor-intensive, that inspired Bill to create a new modular step product.
