Photos from 1954 of the Pinecrest Heights neighborhood before subdividing the farm into houses. Photos show neighboring farms before subdividing also.

Pinecrest was the DeBell farm defined by the land between Manuella and Miranda and led from roughly Miranda Way and the old driveway off Manuela (still there) down to Estacada -- including all of what is now DeBell road. April Anir is in the old DeBell farm house. The garage was on the Libby (now Yu) property and just torn down recently. The "pine crest" still exists somewhat and now has the Water Tank and the Smith house. The remaining large, old pine trees are on the Harr property including one over 5 ft in diameter

According to Stretch: As I recall the story from my Dad, I believe one of the neighbors (Stecker I think, who lived across Miranda, just the right of Carada Ct.) was a honcho at Moffett Field. I think he ordered his fly boys to do some aerial recon training....over his soon to be new homestead. Somehow my Dad found out and Stecker gave him copies. Stretch now lives in Danville and has the original 11x11 photos.
