In 1935, two young developers, Carlton Smith, and Allen Dawson, built their first homes on farmland along Elmhurst Road as the start of a well-planned community to meet the dreams of depression-weary families. The first family moved in during January 1936 and by the end of the year, there were six affordable homes in the pleasant rural area to be called Prospect Heights.
