Homes Worth Preserving
Five of the ten iconic Dallas homes D Home identified as worth preserving are homes I have previously sold. On three of those, I had initiated preservation deed restrictions.
It was also interesting to see modern architects nominate traditional historic homes, and traditional architects nominate modern homes. As I have always said, good architecture is good architecture, regardless of a home’s style or age.
The Hal Thomson home pictured here is a wonderful example. Designed for his own family, it was nominated by modern architect Todd Hamilton. It is also one of the homes I sold with preservation deed restrictions.
Thank you to Jessica Otte, @jessica.j.otte, editor of D Home, and the architects for this compelling approach to discussing homes worth preserving.
I also wrote an article on DouglasNewby.com sharing my perspective on these homes and the strategies we used to help save them.
