Clanton, with a 1914 addition and a 1920s rear addition.","why_significant":"The nomination presents it as a good example of Queen Anne influence on a small working man's cottage from around the turn of the century. Its simplicity is described as its main attraction, and it is one of several similar dwellings in Houston Heights. It is recognized at the local level for architecture.","narrative":"This one-story frame house at 1025 Arlington in Houston Heights is a modest cottage dating to about 1906, with additions made in 1914 and the 1920s. It has a modified L-plan, a hipped roof with two intersecting gables, clapboard siding, and wood two-over-two windows. A four-bay porch wraps around the southeast corner, with turned-wood posts, square balusters and a sheet metal roof. A wide frieze-board decorates the east gable. The rear addition matches the original siding. Moses Clanton, an air brake operator for the Houston & Central railroad, had the house built, and a later owner added to it in 1914. It was listed as a good example of Queen Anne influence on a small working man's home of the early twentieth century. Although Houston Heights has several similar dwellings, the simplicity of this one is considered its main appeal. The house faces east on a landscaped lot with large trees and remains a residence, though the front door was replaced in 1990.","period_of_significance":"1900-1920s","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Vernacular with Queen Anne influence","criteria":[],"status_note":"Physical condition is good; the property is still used as a residence.
