Modular home units. A Kenworth truck has just pulled up to the University of Puget Sound Fieldhouse on March 18, 1970, and will shortly be unloading one section of a modular home which will be displayed during the annual Tacoma Home Show. The modular homes, called "MODS," were manufactured by St. Regis Paper Co. and aimed toward buyers seeking low-cost homes. They could be assembled in one day at the buyer's lot.

Modular home on display. The "MODS" modular home manufactured by the St. Regis Paper Co. was divided into three sections. Here a crane has carefully lowered one section onto the cement parking lot behind the University of Puget Sound Fieldhouse.

Modular home display. This is the assembled modular home, "MODS," with landscaping located at the University of Puget Sound Fieldhouse parking lot in time for the 1970 Tacoma Home Show. For the first time in 24 years, there would be two model homes located in the parking lot; both of them were modular homes manufactured by St. Regis Paper Co. The home was divided into three sections and trucked in to be assembled. St. Regis wanted the buying public to see that low-cost modular homes could be very attractive and affordable.
