The Katy Heritage Society was organized in 1979. Over the next 26 years and through many generous donations the Katy Heritage Society acquired three houses, and the old Post Office. In 2002, the Katy Heritage Society and the City of Katy formed a partnership and in 2003 the historic homes were moved to build Katy Heritage Park. The historic buildings were then restored in their present location. The Katy Heritage Society still owns the buildings and is responsible for all improvements and maintenance. The City of Katy owns and manages the park property.

Erected by The City of Katy.
