That would be the Houston Architectural Guide.

Interesting that you bring that up. There are tons of houses out there that aren't in the guide at all. I've heard that the AIA (not just the Houston Chapter but every chapter) is quite the political animal. If you aren't someone, you don't usually get much attention. Again, just what I've heard. I'm working on a project through next semester that will hopefully document some of the lesser-known mods throughout town, with a little more information about the architects who designed them. Maybe, if I'm lucky and can find someone to publish, it'll turn into a book.

SpaceAge sent these to me. More shots of the mystery house.

The owner is listed as a William L. Cook or Cook, Linton. Can't really find any other information aside from that.

Notice that the house spans the entire block. Alright, any guesses? The other side has the driveway. I could see past the gate and there seems to be some remodeling or restoration going on. The whole neighborhood is that way too, so I didn't look too conspicuous snapping pictures from a filthy black truck.

I know, I'll see what I can cook up later this afternoon. It's such a strange house that I would think someone would have pictures up on some forum by now.

Hello everyone, I'm new here, so if this is a well-known house and I just missed it. Has anyone seen the house on Brown Saddle Rd. in Tanglewood that looks like a submarine coming out of the ground? It's a long, thin mod from the 60's or 70's and was probably done by one of the better known architects in town. The owners have or have had in the past a classic Ford Thunderbird. That's all the info I've got.
