Highrise Tower Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I was browsing the newspaper The Bellaire Texan dated December 22, 1959 and noticed an article that contained the listing for Pickwick Apartments located at 6622 Ardmore Street. This is across the street from the present-day Levit Green development. Does anyone know more information about this multifamily apartment complex? When was it built? Who was the architect? Who was the developer? Any pictures of this building? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted March 6, 2023 Author Share Posted March 6, 2023 This complex was huge!! Pickwick Plaza Apartments had 268 units and was surrounded by Ardmore, Holcombe, Old Spanish Trail, and Grand Blvd. Two streets that were abandoned, I think, they were Pickwick Lane and Plaza Drive. Taken from Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps [Houston, Texas, 1950, Sheet 1602]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
