The modest, basically similar, concrete-block houses ranged from $8,750 for a two-bedroom structure to $11,600 for a three-bedroom and two-bath house. On the first week end, purchasers bought 272 of the neat and gay pastel houses-and the flow has not stopped since. In 1960 the Webb company sold 1,472 houses and 262 apartments for about $17.5 million-and 60% of the sales were for cash. This year the company...
