The year is 1945. The U.S. has just won World War II and soldiers are returning home. They’re expecting a fresh start – the opportunity to reunite with their stateside lovers, find a job and begin a family. Only, there’s one problem: the U.S. is experiencing a housing crisis. With the influx of home-bound soldiers, the demand for housing quickly outpaced the supply. So, what was the U.S. to do? Luckily, a Swedish-born engineer by the name of Carl Strandlund had an idea. What if we manufactured quick-to-build, relatively inexpensive, all-metal houses, funded through government loans, which could be distributed across the country? It was a grand idea, this factory-built house, and Strandlund ran with it. He established the Lustron Corporation, headquartered in Columbus, and his concept blossomed. Backed by government support, the Lustron Corporation distributed over 2,000 homes across America from 1947-1950. It helped patch the nation’s housing crisis, as young families were able to begin new lives in the trendy, brightly colored bungalows. Over time, Lustron’s success faded. Various factors led to the company’s demise. But even after Lustron Corporation folded, the homes remained, scattered among neighborhoods across the country, a metallic emblem of post-war ambition. Over the years, many of these properties have been sold, or demolished, or taken to the scrap yard. In Ohio, the Lustron Corporation’s home state, only 200 or so remain, according to the Ohio History Connection. There used to be several in Knox County – now, there is only one. This week, we spoke with the man most involved with preserving this local historic relic. His name is Jeff Gottke, board president for the Knox County Landmarks Foundation, which currently owns the property. What’s the history behind Mount Vernon’s last remaining Lustron Home? What kind of condition is it in now? And what are the Landmarks Foundation’s plans for it? We answer those questions and more on this edition of Stories from the heart of Ohio.

In this episode of Memphis Type History: The Podcast, Caitlin tells Rebecca all about the engineering and architectural marvel that was the Lustron home. Three of these rare postwar gems can be found in Memphis. Carl Strandlund invented the Lustron home to answer the need for affordable housing for soldiers returning from World War II. The plan was that the government would provide the steel and Strandlund would combat the housing shortage with these highly unique, prefabricated, enamel-coated, modular steel homes. In 1946, he demonstrated the prototype which he claimed was fireproof (because steel), and also could do not rust or be damaged termites or rats and such. It could also stand up to water and sun damage of all kinds. Finally, homeowners would never have to paint it, replace the roof, or do anything more than grab a hose when it was time to clean it. In 1947, his manufacturing company was ready to do business, armed with the first ever venture capital loan from the U.S. government. These homes that could "defy weather, wear, and time" were designed for the modern family, with ads claiming a "new and richer experience for the entire family." At $8,500–$9,500, the pricing came in at 25% less than the market average (although prices went up by 1949 to $10,500). There were three models to choose from and each came with two- and three-bedroom options. The most popular selection was the 1,021 square foot, two bedroom Westchester Deluxe. Unlike the current models of prefabricated homes one purchased from Alladin, Gordon-Van Tine, Montgomery Ward, or Sears at this time, Lustron homes were delivered as engineering marvels complete with a new kind of steel framing system of vertical steel studs and roof-ceiling trusses that the interior and exterior panels were then attached to... and the interior came ready to assemble as well, with all counter tops, pocket doors, and many pieces of furniture built into the design for space-saving. Customers had the option add-on of a combination clothes- and dish-washer made by Thor. The manufacturing system was also a marvel – of the assembly line kind. The Ohio-based factory featured eight miles of conveyor belts, eleven 180-foot enameling furnaces, and up to 1,000 bathtubs could be made in one day, each in a single draw from the press. The finished pieces were all modular, so once the custom-designed trucks arrived on site, the 33,000 individual parts could be built into a house within three days. You might be wondering why, with all of these benefits to their name, Lustron homes are such rare historical and architectural gems. Due to lots of governement bureucracy adn soem sneaky stuff (check out the links roundup at the end of this post if you want all the gory details), the Lustron factory just never produced at capacity. Rather than the 15,000 homes they were projected to make in 1947 and the 30,000 that were planned in 1948, only 2,498 were ever made at all – and Memphis got four of them! Only about 2,000 still exist in the U.S., and most have been modified (somewhat extensively, in many cases). The original owners of the Memphis Lustron homes would have ordered them at the Mid-South Fair. As far as we know, three are still in the city and we discuss them on the show.

In this episode, it’s apparent that Doug doesn’t understand humidity. Justin explains the Christmas pickle to Doug, then they revisit their fond memories of the original movie Point Break followed by the giant turd of a remake that is coming out this Christmas at a theater near you. This leads to some discussion of originality of Hollywood movies and piracy. Things are wrapped up with a throw-down between the Joker and Lex Luthor.
Doug and Justin discuss the gator attack in Texas and ponder the brutality of nature and then have a nice little talk about some terrible ways to die.

Gator attack: http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/04/us/texas-alligator-attack/ Gator revenge: http://fusion.net/story/162426/a-texas-man-known-only-as-bear-killed-an-alligator-that-killed-his-friend-last-week/ Lion attack: http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/03/africa/south-africa-lion-attack/
Doug and Justin lead off discussing the wonderfully light topic of death and then move on to discuss the mind blowing ideas from the Fermi Paradox. They then contemplate the idea of making contact with aliens and how that would change things and try to understand the idea of parallel universes and black holes. Things are wrapped up with a hilarious throw-down between Robin and Spiderman. Fermi Paradox: http://waitbutwhy.com/2014/05/fermi-paradox.html
Doug and Justin discuss their love of video games and the specific ones that left a lasting impression - for better or worse. Things like “Toasty”, “Final Fantasy”, and “Konami Code” are mentioned, discussed, and debated. It all wraps up with a throw-down debate between Cloud and Sora.

We finish things off with a throw down between Rogue and Jubilee.
Doug and Justin grapple with the idea of censorship while discussing a Crafton Hills college student’s attempt to ban some of the most celebrated graphic novels because she viewed them as pornography.
