It is a 1½-story rectangular building with a rear ell, clapboard walls and a composition roof. The front door and two windows have segmental-arch lintels, a bay window projects on the north side, and an Italianate porch marks the front. The second-floor front windows may have been widened at some point. It occupies a corner lot among older small residences and remains a residence, as it was originally. The house was listed as a modestly scaled example of High Victorian Italianate style, a type once common in Paris and elsewhere. It appears on an 1885 bird's-eye view of the city, which helps confirm its age. City directories show frequent changes of occupancy, suggesting it may have served as rental property. The builder is unknown, and the property was recorded as being in fair condition in 1986.","period_of_significance":"1800-1900","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"High Victorian Italianate","criteria":[],"status_note":"Recorded in 1986 as in fair physical condition, still in residential use, on its original site.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.646603-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/5/9698/40969805/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/88001935.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40969805","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001174"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/lamar-county/house-at-705-3rd-street-se-88001935/"}
