The bays, gables and window details of the Victorian period combine with the broad proportions of the Bungalow style in an arrangement described as uncommon in the Heights. Despite aluminum siding, it retains the appearance and details of a vernacular bungalow.","narrative":"Built in 1915, this one-story frame house at 433 West 24th Street in Houston Heights combines Victorian and Arts and Crafts features in a small vernacular dwelling. It has an asymmetrical plan, a hipped roof with four intersecting gables, and a battered skirt wrapping the house. The south gable extends to form a one-bay front porch carried on tapered box columns set on brick piers. Polygonal bays sit beneath the east and west gables, knee braces support the eaves, and the wood windows have Eastlake-style 15/1 sash. The house is credited to C.L. Dotson. It was valued as a good example of a transitional stage of residential design in the Heights, where bays, gables and window details from the Victorian period meet the broad proportions of the bungalow. That arrangement is described as uncommon in the neighborhood. Aluminum siding added in 1976 covers the exterior, yet the original appearance and details remain evident. The house remains a residence.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"C.L.
