Huling Cottage

-A A +A
1860–1872. 205 E. 2nd St.

An unusual example of Greek Revival in this part of Texas, this house is built of large rectangular limestone blocks. The five-bay front porch sets within the end-gable roof in the fashion of a Gulf Coast cottage. The Hulings were the second owners: Elizabeth Huling was an orphan swept up in the evacuation of settlements following the fall of the Alamo, and Thomas B. Huling fought in the Texas Revolution, later serving in the congress of the Republic.
