Western Acres Subdivision – 3650 South & 3900 West

In 1962 Growth in Granger/ Hunter

In the early 1960s, the Valley Center Building Company of Hunter, operated by E. Verne Breeze and Clarence Lowder, was at the forefront of neighborhood growth. They developed about 40 new brick and block homes, priced between $13,700 and $18,500—a solid investment for young families of the time.

The new subdivisions included:

• Harmony Lane – 3700 South & 4000 West (10 homes)

• Jonesdale – 3550 South & 5650 West (4 homes)

• Western Acres – 3650 South & 3900 West (10 homes)

• Fairlane Heights – 4100 West & 4300 South (10 homes)

These subdivisions mark an important chapter in the area’s transformation from farmland into thriving residential neighborhoods
