historic place
The Upchurch House is a historic place located in Houston, within Harris County. This residence, constructed in 1920, stands in the Houston Heights Historic District East. The Houston Heights area was platted in 1891 as one of Houston's first planned suburbs, known for its elevation above downtown Houston. The district is recognized for its collection of Victorian-era and Craftsman bungalow architecture, reflecting the neighborhood's development between 1891 and 1930. The Upchurch House contributes to the historical significance and architectural character of this well-preserved Houston neighborhood. While specific historical marker text and the year a marker was erected for the Upchurch House itself are not available, its inclusion as a City of Houston Landmark within this district highlights its importance to the local history and built environment.
