Violet Crown Heights (1947)

By 1947, Dr. Joseph Samuel Koenig and Clarence McCullough developed Section 1 of the Violet Crown Heights subdivision, from Payne to Ruth in the Brentwood neighborhood. By 1948, they were developing Section 2, from Payne to Koenig Lane. The Dallas Highway, mentioned below, is today’s North Lamar Boulevard. The first street south of the drive-in theatre, which was on the southwest corner of North Lamar and Justin, is Brentwood. Thanks to Mr. McCullough’s son Chuck for this promotional flyer.
