Very cool! In 1911, Cook & Company Architects designed a 3-story office building for D.R. Beatty of Houston.

This was at the corner of Main Street and Walker Street. 

I'm not exactly sure how D.R. Beatty made his fortune, but he could have been a real estate developer? Oil man? Lumber? Banker? This was his 3rd building!

Interesting to note that Beatty selected Henry Collier Cooke for all 3 of his buildings.
