The story

Completed in 1910, this house was built for prominent business and civic leaders Newton A. Burton (d.1955) and Laura (Wallace) Burton (d.1964). Designed by J.E.

Cooper (d.1936), the one-story eclectic structure features elements of the bungalow, classical revival, and American foursquare styles. Prominent features include a wraparound porch with doric columns, shingled hip dormers, exposed rafter ends, and stained glass Transoms.**Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1991***
