Tanglewood was developed by William Giddings Farrington starting in the 1930s and officially opened in 1949, with its earliest homes built as sprawling one-story Ranch houses on generous lots. ## What Tanglewood does to a home appliance. Those original Ranch houses came with central air conditioning already built in, unusual for their era, though many were later renovated with updated finishes. Starting in the 1980s, newer construction shifted toward two-story English-style brick and stone houses and Mediterranean stucco homes with clay tile roofs, and by 2003 these newer houses made up most of the neighborhood's stock.
