Summary

Description
English: During the late 1920s, and early 1930s, the city of Shoreacres became a weekend haven for residents of nearby Houston. Families built weekend homes and boating fish camps, where they could enjoy fishing and boating activities on Galveston Bay. Isaiah P. Walker, vice-president of a Houston-based furniture retail establishment, the Stowers Furniture Company, purchased a tract of land from Shoreacres Realty, Inc. in 1928 with his wife, Annie, for the construction of their own weekend home.
