NRHP Nomination Form

"After a 30 year career in ranching in Colorado and Texas, D.K. Furnish settled in San Antonio and established a real estate partnership with B.F. Nicholson. He commissioned this 2 1/2-story Mission Revival residence from prominent architect Atlee B. Ayres in 1903. Ayres' design contrasts red brick wall surfaces with cast stone detailing and ornate wood trim accents at doorways, windows and level changes. Unusual dormers with curvilinear parapets provide the primary Mission Revival stylistic features. The geometric detailing of the full width porch provides a horizontal emphasis more typical of the Prairie School style found on contemporary examples in the neighborhood,"
