Wisteria Lane
The house facades used in the film were built on Universal's Stage 12. In 1950, two of these facades were moved from Stage 12 to Universal's new backlot set, named Colonial Street. The "Maxim House" was later used for the television series "The Munsters". The "Maxim House" was also used in the movie "One Desire" (1955), while the "Allison House" was used in the movie "Harvey" (1950). The "Harvey House" was also used for the film "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" (1966). Colonial Street was renamed Wisteria Lane when production on the television series "Desperate Housewives" began: the "Harvey House" is 4349 Wisteria Lane, and the "Munster House" is 4351 Wisteria Lane.
