Alabama's newest Smart Neighborhood build underway in Leeds By Dennis Washington April 27, 2021 Curtis White Companies is building 21 new homes in the Cedar Rock Farms subdivision under the guidance of Alabama Power's Smart Neighborhood Builder program. (Dennis Washington / Alabama NewsCenter) The newest development at Cedar Rock Farms in Leeds is no ordinary project for Katie McLaughlin and her father, Joe White. “This project is special to me,” McLaughlin said. “We’re tying it into the original phase of Cedar Rock Farms that my father developed 30 years ago. I remember riding my bike as a kid going to the job sites, so when this opportunity arrived I had my children out here. It was a little like deja vu.”
