Brownell, a founder of the American Real Estate Company, which sought to create an A-lister getaway. Trains would carry visitors to a train station on what is now known as Undercliff Street. Brownell developed this community leaving many natural features. During development of this single-family community, Brownell left areas for parks and green spaces.
