Title:
Preservation grant reports
Description:
The Architecture Division of the Texas Historical Commission works to preserve and protect Texas' diverse architectural heritage by monitoring historical landmarks, awarding preservation grant funds for restoration work on historical structures, and offering advice and technical consultation for the restoration of or changes made to the state's architectural resources. These are historic preservation grant project completion reports by the Texas Historical Commission's Architecture Division of various historic properties, including the Elisabet Ney Studio, county courthouses, old homes, churches, homesteads, and a railroad depot. Dates of the reports are 1981-1985, 1999-2011, undated. These reports contain a narrative of the renovation work done, copies of deed restrictions, a fiscal report for the project, and photographs, slides or digital images of the facility, including views prior to, during, and after the construction was completed. A few of the photographs are also copies of historic images of the facilities dating from the early 20th century. Some of the supporting images may be missing from the reports.
