The Goodall Wooten House is now known as the Mansion at Judges' Hill. The former address of the Goodall Wooten House was 700 W. 19th Street, Austin, TX, but 19th Street was renamed MLK Blvd. To avail confusion, the new owners changed the address to be 1900 Rio Grande Street, Austin, TX. The house is where it has always been, only the street address listing has changed since it was entered into the NRHP. It is near the intersection of MLK Blvd. and Rio Grande Street. The house used to sit on a much larger property that was famous for its landscaping. However, over the past century, the property has been sold off until the main house and a few of its outbuildings remain on a small portion of what was once a city block of surrounding yard. The house itself has been extensively modified by more recent owners who converted the rooms into student apartments. Current owners now run a boutique hotel there with a restaurant in the back. As of this posting in 2011, it is known as the Mansion at Judges' Hill. The Texas Historical marker and the NRHP marker are visible from the front sidewalk.
