Eastwood Civic Association

Eastwood Civic Association The ECA serves more than 2,400 homes in 19 neighborhoods in Houston's historic East End. The ECA serves the neighborhoods of Eastwood, Broadmoor, Lawndale, W.A.

Eastwood's first lots went on sale in June 1912 and the neighborhood officially opened in September 1913. The development was planned with paved streets, cement curbs and sidewalks, city water, gas, electricity, telephones and sanitary sewerage as well as terraced lots designed for natural drainage and planned placement of trees. By October 1913, Eastwood was hailed by The Houston Daily Post as a

“model suburb, one of the most convenient, attractive and beautiful homesite additions in the city of Houston.” The homes built in Eastwood were custom homes reflecting the early 20th century fondness for Craftsman, Arts & Crafts, Foursquare and Mission architecture. Today, Eastwood has one of Houston’s largest intact collections of these architectural styles. Kirby, Jackson Court, Woodleigh, Eastlawn, Dissen Heights, Houston City Railroad, Surburban, L.B. Moody, Beverly Park, Eastview, Hauser, Dor Ruth, Mueller, Dixie, Georgia and Youngmens.
