Sunset Houses
The sand dunes that covered the Sunset District were finally covered over during the post-WWII construction boom. The mass produced homes and their cement front yards have since become the object of considerable derision among residents of the older parts of San Francisco, but remain a relative bargain for working and middle-class individual housing. On the infrequent clear days, when the fog lifts, a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean is one of the secret benefits of living in the Sunset.

Mass produced and affordable housing replaced the sand dunes in the years after World War II.
