LIST OF HOMES FOR CALENDAR ARTS CONTEST
Any of the homes listed below may be selected by the
artist. They were chosen by the College Station Historic
Preservation Committee because of their age (50 years or
older); or because they represent different styles of
architecture. They are divided into two groups. The
first group is older homes in the city that were built on
their present location. The second group are former
campus houses of the faculty and staff of Texas A &M
College that have been moved from the campus to their
present location.
If an artist wishes to choose a home not on the list they
must get approval of the Committee. Contact Gary Halter,
Chairman at 845 -2152 or 696 -5512.

This is the last old campus residence still located on the
Campus of Texas A &M University. This area of the campus
(Throckmorton St.) was known as "quality row" and was the
place of residences of deans and department heads. Most
homes were built of brick and were not moved from the
campus for this reason.
