The club aimed at pleasure, culture, social work and educational help. The form lists its area of significance as social/humanitarian at the local level, and the building is still used as a clubhouse.","narrative":"Built in 1912 at 1846 Harvard Street in the Houston Heights, this one-story frame building has served as a clubhouse for more than a century of local club life. It cost $5000 to build for the Houston Heights Woman's Club, which formed in 1911 when several smaller clubs with specific interests combined into one organization devoted to pleasure, culture, social work and educational help. The building is described as bungaloid, with clapboard walls, a composition hip roof, and an inset porch supported by brick piers at both ends. Square brick pedestals flank the central steps, the balustrades are simple square wood, the doors are double, and the windows have six-over-one lights. The only noted alteration is burglar bars at the windows. Large trees and bushes surround it, and its unpretentious design blends in with the residential buildings on the same block. The architect and builder are unknown. It remains in use as a clubhouse and is valued locally for its social and humanitarian role.","period_of_significance":"1900--","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungaloid","criteria":[],"status_note":"Good physical condition; still in use as a clubhouse, with burglar bars added at the windows.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:19.251296-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/99/9694/40969499/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/83004463.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83004463/c6aaa634dc-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83004463/c6aaa634dc-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Ellietycer","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Houston_Heights_Woman%27s_Clubhouse_Facade,February_2016.jpeg\" rel=\"noopener\">Ellietycer</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Houston_Heights_Woman%27s_Clubhouse_Facade,February_2016.jpeg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40969499","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houston_Heights_Woman%27s_Club","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19880351"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/harris-county/houston-heights-womans-club-83004463/"}
