I lived on this property when it was Lawrence Marcus' Polo Farm. It was in the 1970's. I remember the smaller houses and the barn. I remember the fire ants floating on the water when the bayou would flood.
The store/beer joint just down the rd (1960) was owned by a Mr Smith. I think it was pretty much the only thing around until you reached Katy Freeway. It's so long ago now.
Sorry to hear the house has been demolished.
