The Heights community dates back to the 1890’s and boasts the largest concentration of historic homes in Houston. Some of those historic homes have been lovingly restored, and some are subject to preservation ordinances. Grand Victorian homes were built along the tree-lined esplanade of Heights Boulevard. The surrounding streets were populated by skilled craftsmen, who used their professional skills to give their bungalows the community’s “Carpenter Gothic” look and feel. The style remains so popular that “Retro Victorian” homes are now being constructed throughout the neighborhood.
