Sears Homes in Detroit?

Lustron made these type of homes too. They were all steel construction. Only a handful were found in Metro Detroit. Siding was similar to what is seen at the White Castle! http://www.lustronconnection.org/htm...etroit_MI.html

Thanks. I used to drive by one of those Lustron homes frequently and always wondered what the interior looked like.

That house is on Ashland backing onto Fox Creek. I've had my eye on it every time I went by there just because it is so unusual, and have been noticing that the upkeep seems to have improved quite a bit in the last year or two. Really great to see the interior photos showing that someone has done something really nice with it. That strip there has so much potential, and, as someone who has a family history there, its been sad to see it fall into such decay and disrepair.

I once ran into a whole multi-colored neighborhood of those enameled Lustron homes in Pennsylvania. It was a very strange sight, to be sure.

Thanks. I found it in Google Maps.

The interior looks as if it would be noisy with all those sound-reflecting surfaces. Maybe they could use some kind of active noise cancellation device to dampen the din.
