A Mod Sunday IV

Now we're off to Tanglewood for what looks like an early 90's mod. This is the most detailed shot I could get. The house is almost completely obscured by the walls.

This one is a big mystery to me. It's inside Piney Point, in a private community, so a street address is difficult. The view here is from Memorial drive, next to the Mayo Hill school of Modeling. It's been there for a LONG time.

And this appears to be the house next door.

Bunker Hill - Ourway Ln, or something similiar.

Bunker Hill on Sprey Dr. I think.

Hope y'all enjoyed it. This will become a regular thing, I think. Give it a try.

Very Frank Lloyd Wright looking, thanks for sharing. I wish I could afford something like that.

Yeah the weird house was designed by Goff and is considered one of the more important homes in Houston for that reason. Goff directly influenced Herb Greene, who then influenced Joseph Krakower, an architect responsible for some of the better houses in Braes Heights. I believe the July Mod of the Month is one example.
