The map
About this Levittown map poster
Levittown, in Nassau County on Long Island, was built by Levitt & Sons between 1947 and 1951, when thousands of nearly identical houses went up at a pace never seen before. It became the model for the American postwar suburb, and its streets still show that origin clearly on the map.
Rather than a grid, the plan uses long curving roads and loops that discourage through traffic, with small houses on similar lots along them. Neighbourhood sections are grouped around village greens, schools and pools, while major roads such as Hempstead Turnpike and the Wantagh State Parkway cut through the pattern.
A Levittown map poster reveals that design at a glance. In black and white, the repeating curves and the clear hierarchy of roads form one of the most recognisable street patterns in the United States.

Village greens
Small commercial and community centres, originally called village greens, are placed at intervals within the plan, each serving a cluster of streets.
Major roads
Hempstead Turnpike and the Wantagh State Parkway cross the community as strong straight lines, framing and dividing the curving residential sections.

Why Levittown
A map that means something
Levittown is where many families first owned a home after the war, and generations still live on the same streets. A map of it is a piece of family history and of American suburban history.
