    1950년 중반 동네 지도


    wolfe rd는 homestead에서 끝나고 280도 없었으며 애플 새 건물 들어선 자리는 모두 과수원. 울 집도 없었으며 길도 없었고 과수원 자리. 


    1961년 Eichler Homes, Inc의 대규모 하우스 개발로 현재 살고 있는 집이 지어졌으며, Quincy Jones가 디자인한걸로 전해짐. 그 후 아이클러 회사는 망해서 문 닫았음.  울 집은 Fairwood unit 1개발로 알려져 있으나 archive에 자료는 1b와 뒷집쪽 코드 까지만 찾을 수 있음. 

    Fairwood Units 1 and 2: While bigness and constant evolution characterized Fairbrae, Fairwood was more of a meat-and-potatoes tract. Here Eichler banged out 230 homes between 1961 and 1962 using the same three floor plans from start to finish. Built about the time Eichler Homes went public, it’s tempting to see Fairwood as Eichler showing the stock market that he, a builder known for constantly tinkering with the product, could grind them out like any mainstream builder. Then again, construction costs were escalating and may not have left enough margin for experimentation. And Joe’s attention was straying toward the inner-city San Francisco projects that would bankrupt Eichler Homes a few years later. Whatever the reason, Fairwood shows a definite shift downmarket and toward economies of scale. 3-bedroom homes, virtually invisible at Fairbrae, accounted for a good one-third of sales at Fairwood and at 1328 sq.ft. they were small. Next up the scale was a courtyard-entry 4/2 of only 1494 sq.ft., and a small atrium 4/2 of 1553 sq.ft. The homes of Unit 1 are found on Firebird, Flicker, Flamingo, Dartshire, Kingfisher, Duncardine and Devonshire. Unit 2 was built on S. Wolfe, Cornwall, Dartshire and Mallard.
