Pillot House in Sam Houston Park
Photographer: Jim Evans
Taken: January 27, 2013
Caption: Pillot House in Sam Houston Park
Additional Description: The 1868 Pillot House was built by Eugene Pillot and was originally located at 1803 McKinney. This house is an example of the Eastlake Victorian style. The repetitive balusters and two dimensional cut-out ornamentation seen on the house were made possible by new machinery of the time period. Architectural enhancements such as full-length windows and wrap-around porches illustrate how residences were adapted to the harsh climate of Houston.
