New Norwood Community, Westover, to Open Saturday-This Day In Norwood History-June 12, 1955

Welcome to the neighborhood! In June 1955, a major chapter in Norwood’s post-war suburban boom unfolded with the grand opening of Westover Estates. Designed by architects Compton and Pierce and built by the Jacet Construction Corporation, this planned community introduced stylish mid-century modern split-level and ranch homes featuring floor-to-ceiling fireplaces, all-electric Hotpoint kitchens, and ideal proximity to Willett Pond.
