French Street in Cuero, this one-story frame house was constructed for O.F. and Mary Prigden and follows a bungalow plan. Its features include a heavy cross-gable roof with composition shingles, stick brackets, tapered box columns on brick piers, squared wood balusters, and latticework in the gable ends. Windows are wood-sash double-hung units with one-over-one lights, and the entrance, topped by a transom, is flanked by full-sized windows combined into a single unit. An L-shaped porch wraps the north and west sides, with brick stoops at the entry bays. An offset interior brick chimney adds to the bungalow massing. The Prigdens sold the house to Charles Breeden in 1917, and he sold it to Louis Schorre in 1924. It was listed for its architecture, since it is regarded as one of the city's finest local examples of the bungalow style. The house remains in good condition and in residential use.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungalow","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Present condition is listed as good, and the present use is residential.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.795968-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/72/9687/40968772/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/88001958.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88001958/a1e5b4ab82-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88001958/a1e5b4ab82-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"25or6to4","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pridgen_House,_Cuero,_Texas.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">25or6to4</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:Pridgen_House,_Cuero,_Texas.JPG"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"88001997","name":"Terrell-Reuss Streets Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/texas/terrell-reuss-streets-historic-district-88001997/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968772","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110000788"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/dewitt-county/prigden-o-f-and-mary-house-88001958/"}
