Oh Boy!!

You are going to freak when you see the Before and After and then another After photo of this beautiful creature. I cannot even fathom this is the same house! The Byrne-Reed house was built in the early 19oos and then converted into an office building in the 70s. KUDOS to Humanities Texas for spending the time and money to transform this beauty back to it's original state!!!


During the 20s and 30s
