Bumping a totally antique thread, but it seems like it makes more sense to keep all the info on one thread. There is a mid-mod home tour planned for October 1st and 2nd, 12:00 - 4:00 in Houston's Glenbrook Valley. Tickets are $30 and will raise funds for a new mid-century marker for the neighborhood. Tickets can be purchased in advance on-line at http://www.glenbrookvalley.org There will also be ticket booths set up the day(s) of the event at the corner of Santa Elena and Glen Valley and the corner of Colgate and Lakewind.

There will be 6 very cool houses open, including the one with the "Kit Kat Lounge." They tried to get some variety, so while at least 4 are more time capsule, a couple are more updated, but they are all interesting houses. The art deco 1940 air terminal museum is supposed to participate and be open as part of the tour as well.

There is also an instagram account set up now for the hood, https://www.instagram.com/glenbrookvalley/ and a cool photo blog on the glenbrookvalley.org site as well. There is also a Facebook page for the event https://www.facebook.com/events/324962521179406/
