Split-level houses became an iconic part of American suburban development as growing families moved into expanding neighborhoods during the 1950s and 1960s. Their combination of multiple living levels, attached garages, and contemporary exterior materials made them a recognizable part of the postwar landscape. Because many of these homes remain in use today, the Split-Level House works equally well in a period subdivision or an established residential neighborhood on a contemporary N scale layout.
