The house is back on the market. I saw it today, and all I can say is that it is a dump. Any historic features are either structurally unsound, or falling apart. This isn't a renovation as much as a rebuilding the 'ship of Theseus' Anyone who puts in an offer pulls out, and they are refusing to sell at a reasonable price. The city needs to deal with this blight or its owners.

This house is not that historic. While listed as 1904 on HAR, it turns out to be a 1945 Duplex on HCAD. Also, they seem to be basing their price on tax values, although the land is actually nil due to the deed restrictions.
