Background and history 
At the end of World War II in 1945, the U.S. Government estimated that the country needed to create nearly 3 million houses moderate to low income houses for returning soldiers and their families as soon as possible, followed by an additional 10 million units in the next decade. It found that home builders could not supply such a demand using conventional techniques. Carl Strandlund, owner of Lustron Company, proposed a solution: use prefabricated units that could be assembled quickly and cheaply all over the United States, using local dealerships to assemble the final products.
