BACKGROUND:
Certificate of Appropriateness application #CA25-15 was submitted by Historic
Preservation Officer David Klempin on January 22, 2025 to relocate the historic 1888
Tate House from 122 West Peach Street to 701 South Main Street, Grapevine, Texas.
This house, originally built in 1888 on the Tate Farm on Denton Creek prior to the
construction of Lake Grapevine. It stood at the end of Dove Road where Scott's landing
is today. In 1951 it was moved to its current location at 122 West Peach Street. Mayor
Tate's uncle and family occupied the house until his death. The property has been sold
and the site is to be redeveloped for two single family homes. The Grapevine Convention
& Visitors Bureau would move the house to the Cotton Belt Railroad Historic District and
locate it in the open area between the Bragg House and the Water tower and Blacksmith
Shop.
The front porch of the house would face the Section Forman's House and the GVRR
Platform. The House with its two front doors would allow for two rental spaces for artisans.
The exterior of the house would be restored to its period of significance of 1888 with wood
siding and trim, wood doors and windows.
It would be painted in period colors appropriate to the Cotton Belt Railroad District. The
front porch and columns would be restored. The existing house living area is 1,200 square
feet in size. The building height is 18 feet.
Staff review of the plans with regard to the Secretary of Interior's Standards finds them to
be in compliance with the Standards.
Staff recommends approval of #CA25-15 to relocate the 1888 Tate House to 701 South
Main Street, Grapevine, Texas as per the attached plans with the conditions a building
permit be obtained from the Building Department and all exterior materials, windows,
doors and door hardware, light fixtures and paint colors be staff approved under a
separate Certificate(s) of Appropriateness.
