It sits on a large lot in a residential neighborhood of North Belton.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a good example of an evolutionary domestic design that mixes late Victorian and Arts & Crafts bungalow elements. It is also tied to the growth of Belton's middle class during the cotton boom and the surge in modest residential construction. It is listed under Criterion C in the area of Architecture.","narrative":"This 1 1/2-story frame house at 618 North Wall in Belton was built in its present form between 1905 and 1915 for Dr. Jacob Moore Frazier. Frazier studied medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and moved to Belton with his wife Minnie in 1894. He kept a private practice, served as physician for Baylor College for Women until 1936, and taught anatomy, physiology and hygiene there. The house has a side-gabled roof, a large front shed dormer with a small balcony, and a recessed full-width porch with boxed columns. The lower floor shows late Victorian features such as tall windows with pedimented architraves, while the upper story has the broad eaves, brackets and exposed rafter tails of an Arts & Crafts bungalow. The form suggests the bungalow was built around an earlier house. It was listed for its architecture and for reflecting middle-class growth during Belton's cotton boom. The house remains a single dwelling in good condition.","period_of_significance":"C. 1910","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungalow/Craftsman","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Described as in good condition with most original architectural features intact; still used as a single dwelling.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.023085-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/97/9681/40968197/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/90001897.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/90001897/26f7f3ea56-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/90001897/26f7f3ea56-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY 4.0","author":"Larry D.
