HeeterCrownHouse

The Heeter-Crown farmhouse was built sometime around 1900 after an older house on the site burned down. It was a two-story, three-bay frame I-house. The house was located off Fields Road, right before you enter the Washingtonian Center. The 100-year-old house was demolished in May of 2010 to make way for more development.

Mary Margarert Garrett Abert 1/16/11 I can't beleive that my Great Great Grandfathers house was allowed to be destroyed.
Friend 3/8/11 When did this happen? How was this not a historic site?
Andrew Odom 5/25/11 Outrageous. I'm new to the area but I was surprised this development ("Crown Farms" is it?) went through. Talk about over-development.
Margie Hickman 9/23/11 Jane Crown and I would ride her horse here almost every week to visit her Aunt Kitty and cousin Danny. They were the best of people kindhearted and honest hard working friends. I am sorry to see this happen to our farmland. So sad.
Paxton "Packy" Pickrell 5/12/12 More of that modern word "Progress" that I have fought every day of my adult life. They take it all and walk away. They have no clue of the history and happiness that this home stood for - Sad!
