The Palace of Better Housing
was held in the 1915 Commerce & Industries Building/1916 Canadian Building. The grounds behind the building contained the Federal Housing Administration’s “ModelTown,”more than 50 model homes designed by architects, each home with floor plan and information on the cost of building and financing, important to a public beginning to see hope as the depression came to an end.
