    CITY OF HOUSTON Archaeological & Historical Commission Planning and Development Department PROTECTED LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT LANDMARK NAME: Baker-Meyer Building AGENDA ITEM: Vb OWNER: FKM Partnerships Ltd. HPO FILE NO: 10PL93 APPLICANT: Kenny Meyer DATE ACCEPTED: June 8, 2010 LOCATION: 315 Travis Street – Main Street Market Square HAHC HEARING: June 17, 2010 Historic District PC HEARING: June 24, 2010 30-DAY HEARING NOTICE: N/A SITE INFORMATION Lot 7, Block 33, SSBB, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. The site includes a two-story, brick, commercial building. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Landmark and Protected Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Baker-Meyer Building at 313 Travis Street in Downtown Houston was designed in the Greek Revival style as is revealed in the corbelled brick cornice. The building was constructed circa 1870 making it among the oldest commercial buildings still standing in Houston. George Baker, a pioneer citizen of Houston, was the original owner. In 1884 George Baker’s daughter Rebecca married Joseph F. Meyer and the building has remained in the Meyer family ever since. Joseph Meyer was founder of the Joseph F. Meyer Hardware Company; president of the Houston National Exchange Bank; served two terms as alderman of the Third Ward; served one year as county commissioner of Harris County and was chief of the Houston Volunteer Fire Department. In 1885 Meyer began acquiring land in the southwest part of Houston and by 1893 he owned more than 6,000 acres. In 1955 George Meyer developed the Meyerland subdivision, located in southwest Houston, on a portion of this land.

    THE MILAM STREET BRIDGE ARTIFACT ASSEMBLAGE: HOUSTONIANS JOINED BY THE COMMON THREAD OF ARTIFACTS – A STORY SPANNING FROM THE CIVIL WAR TO MODERN DAY A Dissertation by JOSHUA ROBERT FARRAR Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Luis F. M. Vieira De Castro Committee Members, Donny L. Hamilton Christopher M. Dostal Joseph G. Dawson III Anthony M. Filippi Head of Department, Darryl J. De Ruiter May 2020 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2020 Joshua R. Farrar ABSTRACT Buffalo Bayou has connected Houston, Texas to Galveston Bay and the Gulf of Mexico since Houston’s founding in 1837. During the American Civil War of 1861-65, Houston served as a storehouse for weapons, ammunition, food, clothing, and other supplies destined for the war effort in Galveston and the rest of the Confederacy. Near the end or soon after the Civil War ended, Confederate material supplies were lost or abandoned in Buffalo Bayou under the Milam Street Bridge in Houston. In 1968, the Southwestern Historical Exploration Society (SHES) recovered around 1000 artifacts with an 80-ton dragline crane operated off the Milam Street Bridge. About 650 artifacts from this collection were rediscovered by the Houston Archeological Society in 2015, stored in filing boxes at the Heritage Society at Sam Houston Park. This dissertation serves as an artifact and document-based study using newspaper accounts, sworn statements, and archaeological reports to assemble and detail the history of the Milam Street Artifact Assemblage – from abandonment in the bayou to rediscovery at the Heritage Society.

  • Living Downtown in Historic Buildings
    Living Downtown in Historic Buildings Urban sociologists are strong advocates for the idea that high-density residential/retail/cultural districts are essential elements for a dynamic city in the 21st century. Since Houston has always aspired to be a dynamic city, it is taking this advice seriously and developing high-density centers. Downtown Houston is becoming a popular one by recycling historic buildings as comfortable places to live. In preserving these buildings, environmental concerns are also being addressed by preventing tons of building materials from being deposited into landfills. In 1993 the concept of residential lofts was introduced by the adaptive use of two buildings. There were two apartment units created in the 1889 W. L. Foley Co. Building (214 Travis Street) while the ground floor of the former dry goods store continued to be used for commercial ventures. Dakota Lofts (711 William Street) was carved out of the 1910 Bute Paint Co. Building, located in an area of older warehouses north of Buffalo Bayou. The Warehouse District became an artists’ haven as smaller buildings also provided housing units, such as the San Jacinto Lofts (915 N. San Jacinto Street) that were built into a 1914 warehouse. In 1995 the 1921 Hogg Building was redeveloped into Hogg Palace (401 Louisiana Street). With 80 units topped by a penthouse and rooftop garden, it was the largest adaptive re-use accomplished H ermann Lofts during these early years. In 1997 a long-awaited conversion occurred when the 1913 Rice Hotel—a legendary Houston establishment—was transformed into the Post Rice Lofts (909 Texas Avenue), containing 312 rental units.
