The architect and builder are unknown.","why_significant":"The nomination calls it a very good example of a Prairie style house of the kind built in San Angelo after World War I. It was built for John G. Shepperson, a furniture store owner and automobile dealer. Its age, architectural quality and integrity support its listing, with local significance in architecture.","narrative":"Built in 1919 at 716 Preusser in San Angelo, this two-story buff brick house reflects the Prairie style as it appeared in the city after World War I. The building is basically cubical, covered by a low hip roof with wide boxed eaves and bracketed consoles. A one-story offset front porch rests on square, heavy brick columns, and a projecting wing on one side forms a porte cochere with a room above it. Double-hung one-over-one windows are grouped in pairs or triples, with stone sills and lintels that echo the stone-capped brick porch rail. It was built for John G. Shepperson, who owned a furniture store and worked as an automobile dealer. The architect and builder are not known. The property was recognized for its age, architectural quality and integrity, and it remains on its original site in good condition. It sits in the same block as another inventoried San Angelo property, and its significance is local, in the area of architecture.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Prairie","criteria":[],"status_note":"Physical condition is described as good; the site is original and the form lists no alterations.","vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.200465-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/97/9701/40970197/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/88002587.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88002587/1aa9c027aa-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88002587/1aa9c027aa-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"25or6to4","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shepperson_House,_San_Angelo,_TX.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">25or6to4</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shepperson_House,_San_Angelo,_TX.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40970197","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001372"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/tom-green-county/shepperson-house-88002587/"}
