Waddill in McKinney, Collin County, Texas, built in 1914 by an unknown architect or builder.","why_significant":"The house is considered one of McKinney's best bungalow examples, with the strong horizontal emphasis and stick brackets typical of the style. Its two-story section is an unusual feature among the city's bungalows. The reviewer called it an excellent local example of the Bungalow style.","narrative":"Built in 1914 at 211 N. Waddill in McKinney, this one-and-a-half-story frame house with brick veneer is a good example of the bungalow style. It has a gable roof with standing-seam metal covering, box eaves with stick brackets, wood-sash double-hung windows, and a one-bay porch with a gable roof on the east elevation, supported by paired posts on brick piers. An interior brick chimney has a corbeled cap, and triple windows pair multipaned sash over single-light sash. McKinney has many bungalows built between the 1910s and late 1930s, and this house is regarded as one of the best. Its strong horizontal emphasis and stick brackets are typical of the style, while the two-story section is unusual among local bungalows. It was built for J.H. Taylor, who farmed in nearby areas and kept ownership through the 1930s. It was listed for its architectural value as an excellent local bungalow.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungalow","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Condition is listed as good, with residential use both originally and at the time of the 1985 survey.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.450977-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/43/9685/40968543/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/87001753.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87001753/b9c3c924fc-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87001753/b9c3c924fc-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Geeklet42","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:211_N_Waddill,_McKinney,_TX.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Geeklet42</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:211_N_Waddill,_McKinney,_TX.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968543","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q140166512"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/collin-county/taylor-j-h-house-87001753/"}
