Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Garvey-Veihl House.jpg |
English: The Garvey-Vheil landmark is a historic home located in Fort Worth, Texas. The property is located off of Samuel Avenue near the northern downtown area. This landmark is relatively unknown and often overlooked, even by some local Historic Societies. Despite promises to the contrary, the current owner has done nothing to prevent its declining overall state due to weather, vandalism and the many things that eat away at abandonments, especially the passing of time.
There is a Texas State Seal at the front of the property and this is what it says: "Early landowner Baldwin L. Samuel deeded land in this area to his daughter Mary and her husband Isaac Foster in 1876. The Fosters and their daughter Lucy (Lula) and her husband William B. Garvey moved here from Kentucky in 1882 and built a home overlooking the Trinity River on a lot adjacent to this home site. At that time many of the city's wealthiest families were building impressive homes along Samuels Avenue and the bluff of the Trinity River. The Garveys bought this lot from the Fosters in 1883 and in 1884 built a small 1-story frame residence. By the late 1890s they had enlarged the house to its current 2-story Queen Anne style appearance. The house exhibits hallmark features of the style, including asymmetrical massing, porches, dormers, and beehive turrets. The house was bequeathed to Baptist Church Charities following the Garvey's deaths in 1915. Merchant Robert C. Veihl and his wife, Lena B., bought the home in 1918. It was maintained by the Veihl family until 1959, but was subsequently abandoned and in 1972 faced condemnation. The house is representative of the grand homes that lined Samuels Avenue at the turn of the century. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark- 1993." (Via: www.thc.state.tx.us) |
