Little Boxes: Mid-Century Suburban Architecture

Posted on Sep 6, 2009 by Paul Kaplan

A new book I discovered this weekend:  LITTLE BOXES: The Architecture of a Classic Midcentury Suburb is a fascinating visual journey through the Westlake District of Daly City, California, one of America’s first and most iconic postwar suburbs. Located just south of San Francisco, Westlake has frequently been compared to Levittown, New York, the first major postwar suburb in the United States

Little Boxes documents this important suburb’s meticulous development process and celebrates its classic midcentury style.
