     Nathaniel Townsend (1804-1864) came to Texas in 1830. He hired James Stephens to build this house, which was finally completed in the late 1830s, following the Texas Revolution and Townsend's service as consul in New Orleans. German immigrant Heinrich Bremer purchased it in 1905, and it remained in his family until 1961. A rare example of Republic of Texas-era architecture, the house exhibits Greek revival influences. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1990
