Big BUMP on this thread. FYI for any one in the Houston area, or in town on July 13th.

Houston Mod, the local "mod" preservation group, has chosen one of the Glenbrook mod houses as their mod of the month, and it will be held open on Sunday, July 13th from 2 to 4. They pick one mod that is for sale every month and try to draw attention to it so that it helps get a sympathetic person who "gets it" to hopefully buy it and save it.

In addition to the one mod, there will be four other mid-century swankiendas open, creating a sort of home tour. These include a roman brick ranch with a kitchen featured in Atomic Ranch magazine, a boom-a-rang shaped jolly rancher on a ravine lot, and a one-owner all original colonial with lots of terrazzo that looks like Samantha from Bewitched should be living in.
