ABOUT THE 1886 FREDERICK AND MARY BEISSNER HOUSE | English architect William Herbert Roystone (1856-1922) designed this elaborate Queen Anne house for cotton clerk Frederick Beissner and his wife, Mary. The building features a diagonally set front entrance gallery, imbricated shingles and lavish trim in a sunflower motif that reoccurs in the cross-gabled roof. Roystone worked in Galveston 1886-1890 and was briefly associated with the office of Nicholas Clayton. Located in the East End Historic District, the Texas Historical Commission designated the Beissner house a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1990.
