Willow Brook Subdivision in Olivette has some nice examples of late 1950s ranch and split foyer homes. In particular, the homes on Willow Brook Drive have many elements of a classic Cliff May California house including low slung roofs, floor to ceiling and clerestory windows, board and batten siding, exposed beams, rustic stacks, and carports.
