Carden, David A., House
historic place
The David A. Carden House, a historic place in Houston, Texas, is located at 718 West 17th Avenue in the Houston Heights neighborhood. Owner David A. Carden built this one-and-a-half-story wood-frame house around 1918. The house features a Bungalow/Craftsman style, with a hipped roof, dormers, and wide eaves. Its full-facade inset porch incorporates Victorian-style elements, including a spindled frieze and turned-wood balusters. These details highlight Mr. Carden's individual building approach. The David A. Carden House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 17, 1990. It stands as a local example of early 20th-century architectural design.
