The subdivision was developed by Commodore Company Limited. The land comprising the area was originally owned by various landowners, including Bert C. Farquharson and Allison R. Morash. Their names are reflected in the area's Farquharson Street and Morash Pond.Prince Andrew High School was built in 1960, shortly before the town and county areas of Dartmouth were amalgamated into the City of Dartmouth in 1961.
