Does anyone know about the architect named in the HAR posting, Allen R Williams? I am impressed that the agent is suggesting remodeling this place; although it seems unlikely given the neighborhood.

What a unique play on angles, hope the next owner appreciates it.
"Barnabas Collins is a fictional character, one of the feature characters in the ABC soap opera serial Dark Shadows, which aired from 1966 to 1971. ...is a self-loathing, yet sympathetic, 175-year-old vampire, who is in search of fresh blood and his lost love". ---Wikipedia
In Will Hogg's 1929 City Planning Commission Report, Hare & Hare's advise on adopting a city plan to include zoning & parks, ..."the people of Houston and their officials will have to decide whether they are building a great city or merely a great population."

Neat house - just wish the neighborhood was more intact..
One of his homes was on the 2005 RDA tour - 6328 Brookside Dr. (1950).
In this thread it is mentioned that the Brookside home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was built for Angelo and Lillian Minella, and it was one of several of Williams' "Century Built Homes."

That circular element reminds me of Elvis's Palm Springs house.

Better living through

Some LVL engineered beams would do wonders for that place...

All I can say is wow! That house is great.
It's a shame they're building those hideous out-sized fake French chateauxs down the road.
To me that's just as bad as the blighted, crime ridden apartments down the road from my home.

I agree about the house. I agree about the oversized McChateaux. But I think I would rather live down the road from those instead of blighted, crime-ridden apartments. Unless you're talkin' about Wilshire Village!
