Notes
  • Significance: The John H. Houghton House was one of the larger, more elegant residences built in the late nineteenth century in the Capitol area. Its original owner, John H. Houghton, a prominent Austin businessman, employed James Wahrenberger, who was an architect of note in central Texas, to design the house. As the surrounding city has changed during the twentieth century, the Houghton House has remained one of the major historical and architectural symbols reflecting life in Austin in the late nineteenth century.
