Jersey01 Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Does anyone know what is going on at 56 Tiel Way? The house is a rustic 50's mod that was designed by Hugo Neuhaus Jr. But lately it has been covered and some type of construction is under way. The home has always made me curious as it is as far from the typical River Oaks home as anyone can imagine. Hopefully it is a restoration.

That's been going on for quite a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenH Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 looks like a neighbor, 55 tiel way, is up for demolition56 seems to be undergoing one serious restoration/rennovation/remodeling. The house is still there (you can see a few of the windows through the green screens.) I don't think this one is in any danger of vanishing.

Willowisp Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 20 Tiel Way had an "open house" over a year ago which was more of a property open house. We went and paid our respects. It was pretty interesting, but in barely savable condition even by the most heroic restorer. The sale price was something like $900K. 24 or 26 or whatever Tiel is in even worse condition. Since they were side by side I thought someone might buy both and put up something really big. Too bad people let their houses get to that state.JasonOne of the ramshackle ones was toasted on Friday.
