WELCOME TO THE GALVESTON HISTORIC HOMES TOUR! W. DWAYNE JONES - EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ................................................................... I hope you enjoy our 47th annual Homes Tour. This year’s lineup of houses is really exciting, showcasing a range of Galveston’s best residential architecture. Small to large, the houses tell great stories of island life and exhibit various ways to restore and rehabilitate our great architectural assets. As we recognize our 150th anniversary, and through the support of homeowners opening up some great houses, we’re looking forward to this year’s tour and a number of unprecedented special events. Galveston hosts a very large collection of historic properties from the 1830s to the 1950s. GHF from the 1950s committed itself to saving properties. Our volunteer leaders and staff have a long record of going to great efforts to keep our historic properties an active part of the community and being preserved to tell future generations about this historic barrier island. Join us for our special events and tour our historic neighborhoods while you are here. Galveston is one of the nation’s real treasures of history and architecture.
