To assist returning veterans of
WWII, the Mississippi Legislature
set aside 153 acres for low-cost
house sites. Then known as the
"Old Asylum Land," the parcels
were sold by lottery in September,
1948. Streets in the subdivision
bear familiar wartime names, such
as Manila and Normandy. Some 350
houses were originally built here.
