A model house, with furnishings designed especially for the project, opened in Greendale at 5503 Acorn Court on February 7, 1937. Over a twelve-month period, some 650,000 visitors streamed to the site, including many design professionals, builders, housing officials and realtors, some from as far away as Moscow.
