In the early '50s, the first owners of the tract homes developed by Joseph Eichler paid as little as $800 down, and today they routinely sell for over $1M, thanks to an overheated Bay Area housing market fond of midcentury modernism. So it's no surprise that people are trying to build more of them. What's claimed to be the first Eichler home built since 1974 will be finished soon, and Curbed National has the story of how it came to be. [Curbed National]
