Cammack Village, the wartime housing project that became a city

Cammack Village exists because of World War II. Wiley Dan Cammack gave his land for a federally subsidized housing project to relieve the housing shortage at Camp Joseph T. Robinson, and the city incorporated on April 5, 1943, mainly so it could run its own police and fire protection. The houses went up in rows to U.S. Army family-housing specifications, and that original stock is still most of what stands, with several larger homes built later on the north end.

There are no businesses here. Little Rock supplies the water, trash pickup, fire protection and power, Cammack Village keeps its own police force, and Jefferson Elementary sits inside the city limits. The 2020 Census counted 404 homes, 370 of them occupied, and the population has been below its 1960 peak of 1,355 ever since.

Not every house is from the housing project. The Sam and Shirley Strauss House, a Modern Movement design by architect Noland Blass Jr., is on the National Register of Historic Places.

A house from the 1943 project is now more than 80 years old. On a roof over decking that age, every replacement we do is a full tear-off, so the boards underneath can be seen and the soft ones replaced before new shingles go on.
