Page for L. B. Clegg. It later served as rental apartments.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a fine and unusually early example of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture in San Antonio, perhaps twenty years older than most similar structures in the region. It shows a high level of craftsmanship in its woodwork and glass, and it keeps its original structure, outbuildings and period furnishings. It also has ties to architect Harvey L. Page and served a social role as a venue for small receptions and weddings.","narrative":"Built in 1902 at 123 West Park Avenue in San Antonio, the L. B. Clegg House is a stuccoed Spanish Colonial Revival residence designed and built by architect Harvey L. Page. Its open timber roofs, projecting balconies, leaded glass casement windows and French doors typify the style, and the main house is joined to a carriage house and servants' quarters around a courtyard. Inside, walnut trim, oak floors, coffered ceilings and limestone columns with Moorish capitals stand out. The house was enlarged in 1925 with a long entrance hall and a studio for its second owner, Roy M. Beitel. After use as a private hospital, it was bought in 1937 by poet Josephine Haltom Henning, who divided it into apartments and hosted receptions and weddings in the gardens. The nomination calls it an unusually early example of the style in the region, with original outbuildings and European furnishings preserved. Campus expansion of neighboring San Antonio College was described as a threat.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"Harvey L.
