historical marker
The Stanley and Emily Finch House, located in Austin, Travis County, Texas, was constructed between 1927 and 1928. It was designed by Raymond Everett, a University of Texas architecture professor. The original owners were Stanley P. Finch, a University of Texas Civil Engineering Professor from 1905 to 1952, and his wife, Emily Rice Finch. Emily Finch was a prominent civic leader and a founding member of The Junior League of Austin. The house is an intact Colonial Revival home. Landscape architect C. Coatsworth Pinkney designed the landscape in the 1940s. Significant additions include bay windows by Hugo Kuehne in 1945 and a side porch enclosure by J. Roy White in 1951. In 1999, the Texas Historical Commission erected a marker here, designating it a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark. This site is historically important for its architecture and its connection to the Finch family and their contributions to Austin.
