Committee Chair Cathy Dillon presented the awards at the recent Annual Membership Meeting and Awards Dinner.

Committee members Jean Baggett, Shelley Henry, Jane Hughson, Nancy Scott, Rodney vanOudekerke, and Greg Wurzbach reviewed a number of locations over 75 years old which have had major improvements in the last three years.

Michael and Elly Dietz
919 Belvin Street

This house is a “traditional American foursquare” which was built in 1904. You’ll probably recognize it as the one with the pointiest roof on Belvin St!  Mike and Elly Dietz have been working on it for 20 years and they say the “walls are talking” as they move from room to room in their renovations.  Elly promises that 2013 is their target completion date.

Price Seniors Center
222 West San Antonio Street

The Price Center is located in the old First Christian Church building, first constructed in 1893 and then enlarged through the years. It was donated by the church and philanthropist H.Y. Price to the City of San Marcos to be used as a senior citizen’s center. Ron and Marie have personally and lovingly poured their lives into transforming this old church into a civic showplace.

Sergi and Associates Law Office
329 South Guadalupe Street

This unique building has a fascinating history. It has been a gas station, fruit stand, office supply store, paint store, and somewhere way back when…..a speakeasy! Since becoming David’s law office several years ago, it has also been the scene of not one but two roof collapses so this is a remodeling project that just keeps on happening—over and over again

James and Deb Robertson
1202 W. Hopkins Street

This great old house is a good example of Craftsman architecture. The Robertsons originally purchased and began remodeling the house for Deb’s mother, but in the course of the project they fell in love with it and decided to live in it themselves. James owns Native Furniture Works in Martindale, so he hand-built much of the interior woodwork.
