Oh no. 317 Snover. One of the last of the great hold outs in Rice Military. Great house on a nice big lot.

Anytime a Skylane Apt. complex bites the dust and ANGEL GET THEIR WINGS.

Agreed, Old School. That’s a beautiful, big old house on a lovely corner lot. What a shame.

It was bought a few years back and hasn’t been a “Skylane” for some time. With few exceptions, SKylane pretty much died out 4 years ago.
