Levittown, New York

Primary source: Levittown, photograph, 1958.
Caption: As the first community of its kind, Levittown, New York, located 25 miles east of Manhattan on Long Island, heralded the postwar arrival of suburban America with its hundreds of acres of mass-produced housing.



The suburban dream embodied in Levittown, New York, suggested the conservative mood of America during the 1950s.
