Home Sweet Home Model, 1924

Home Sweet Home Model, 1924
While Van Sweringen interests did not guide the development of the South Moreland neighborhood, they did acquire lands in the North Moreland area. Revamped to meet Van Sweringen standards, the Better Home League of America constructed a model "Home Sweet Home" on the east side of what is now Sutton Road near the South Moreland Boulevard intersection in 1924. The structure was modeled from a national demonstration home constructed on the National Mall in 1923. Constructed of concrete and veneered with stucco, the affordable, fireproof display was meant to promote home ownership. | Source: The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Advertisement
