Caption
The 54-home Brookside subdivision off Stone School Rd., just east of the Ann Arbor city limits, has gained public notice for its rapid development and the speed of lot sales. The project, started March 23, took only nine months for completion. Eugene H. Hannah is the builder and developer for the subdivision. This aerial view shows the houses built along newly laid out roads. The outside row of homes is included in the development. By Sept. 1, about 25 families had their lawns seeded and trees planted.
