Williams House

[bburton]

Henry M. Williams had this Colonial Revival residence built on the westside of Fort Worth between 1907 and 1909.

BTW: This was as close as I could get before they turned the dogs loose.

Bruce, I got to walk through the house about 3 yrs ago. The then current owners were trying to sell it because they bought and thought they could renovate without considering the history of the place. several rooms had original wallpaper and mouldings removed so they could put in wall to wall mirrors, they painted it Pink (it has faded some) and they removed several items that were owned by the historical commission if I understand correctly. I dont know if they were able to sell it but they were trying to include the almost $1m of fines they had accumulated into the asking price. It looks much better than it did when I walked through though.

LOL I just see you running full speed, camera intact, dogs closing in.
