Willowisp Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Hey all,My wife's friend told my wife about a tv news story on Channel 13 of a mid-century modern house in Houston that was recently sold and is going to be torn down for the lot, a large (possibly 3 acre) property. On the tv they said it was mid-century modern and that it was recently restored. The friend didn't catch the architect's name or anything that would nail it down, and I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what house it could be.Anyone see that tv news story?I ran pics of these 2 houses by her:It is NOT the 1955 John Staub house at the end of River Bend (though I bet that will get torn down too).It is NOT the Lloyd & Morgan at 329 Buckingham.I will not rest until I know.Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missjanel Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 1000 Kirby recently sold but it's 80's contemporary, not mid century. It's on 3.1 acres overlooking Buffalo Bayou.

marmer Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I couldn't find anything on the KTRK web site (you probably looked, too.) Could it have been a follow-up story about the Cohen house?Hmm... large lot, recently restored. The Neuhaus house? The Frame house?

Willowisp Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 I've been told by someone that it's 316 Longwoods Ln. That's the Thrash House by P. Bolton (& Barnstone?). Sorry I missed that on the news. Maybe someone could get the arial picture from local.live? It's pretty huge.Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
