Comments: | Lawrence moved out in the 1960s after designing and building a home for his family. See the Houston Architectural Guide, page 268 | |
Architectural Comments: | The home apparently used to have a free-standing gabled entrance that stood perpendicular to the home's front entrance above the front walk. This free-standing entrance was built by Lawrence but later taken down by a set of owners in the 1990s. |
