It was designed in 1963 and built the same year by a local firm that is no longer in business in the Fort Worth, TX area. It has lots of stonework and appears to be rough cedar vertical siding.

What is the reason you need to know it's "style"? "Style" can be a very slippery word. _________________ Bryce Engstrom:Architect, A.I.A., General Building Contractor, LEED AP www.engstromarchitecture.com www.central-coast-project-design-planning-guides.com

Can you remove your own posts or threads here? Not seeing it. _________________ Bryce Engstrom:Architect, A.I.A., General Building Contractor, LEED AP www.engstromarchitecture.com www.central-coast-project-design-planning-guides.com

I see that 'moonstonestreet' has spammed about their own '- * spam * -' on multiple forums in an attempt to get attention... Apparently that's the way to get the message out: flood the media outlets, but without the expense of a 3 million $ 30 second super bowl ad.... _________________ "If the city is one of humankinds greatest achievements, it's uncontrolled evolution also can lead to desecration of both nature and the human spirit" -M.G.

The stone work is probably a non structural veneer for looks only.
