James Greenwood Home At 1839 Kirby Dr.


Highrise Tower

Recommended Posts

Found a James Greenwood, Jr. curriculum vitae that lists his residence in River Oaks.  I believe the home was demolished and a new mansion took its place.  Tried searching on Google Earth but there's too many trees on the parcel to find the house.

I never knew Jas. Greenwood, Jr. was included in all of the Texas Medical Center hospitals.  He practically worked at every TMC hospital. Impressive resume! Although, I did notice the infamous Greenwood Sanitarium was not listed. I do know his father, James Greenwood, Sr. founded the sanitarium. I thought he worked at the sanitarium a long side his father? He was a doctor there.
