Blair Construction Company Office, 1954


I got this photo from the Chuzzy Jenkins family scrapbook. It shows a photo from The Texas Coaster announcing the new offices of Blair Construction Company in Sugar Land. The date is May 6, 1954. I'm not exactly sure where the building stood. Maybe someone can refresh my
memory.


(Update) My brother Bruce has done some research. He thinks the location may be the southeast corner of Brooks Street & Highway 90A. (That's the old location of the old Texaco station and roughly where the car wash stood until a few years ago.) The house in the background looks like the last one on the east side of Brooks Street after Highway 90A was widened to 4 lanes in 1947. He also found out that the Varnaus lived in that house until 1949. We assume this is Bytherd & Bennie Varnau, Sr.
