It has a hipped roof with a projecting gable bay finished in shingles, clapboard walls, and a composition roof. A double gallery wraps around one side on simple Doric columns, with square balusters on the second floor. Two single front doors serve the two units, the windows have one-over-one lights, and the house rests on brick piers. The style shows Colonial Revival influence. The house sits on a simple yard in the middle of the block, in a residential area, and records show no alterations, with its original use as a residence continuing. It was listed for its architectural value at the local level, as a good example of a modest frame house of the early Heights. One early occupant, Florus Hannsz, worked as a repairman on the street railway.","period_of_significance":"1900--","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Colonial Revival influence","criteria":[],"status_note":"Physical condition is listed as good; the original use and present use are both residence, and no alterations are recorded.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:19.141395-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/72/9692/40969272/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/83004459.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40969272","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001030"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/harris-county/house-at-1421-1423-waverly-street-83004459/"}
