"Lustron houses are prefabricated enameled steel houses developed in the post-WW2 era in in response to the shortage of homes for returning GIs... Considered low-maintenance and extremely durable, they were expected to attract modern families who might not have the time for, or interest in, repairing and painting conventional wood and plaster houses... Over 2,000 homes were constructed during the Lustron's brief production period, and many remain in use today. Several have been added to the National Register of Historic Places." from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustron_house
Our docent will also talk about bringing a Lustron house "back to life". There will be time to play a round of golf in the backyard when you are done in the house.
