Real estate agent Robert Searcy sends in make-’em-look-pretty pics of a few of the small Modern office buildings to be found along Bellfort St. between Telephone Rd. and Broadway in Glenbrook Valley. The buildings were built in the 1960s, many of them to serve doctors connected to the former Southeast Memorial Hospital on the northwest corner of Bellfort St. and Glenloch. (Later operated by Riverside General Hospital as its Edith Irby Jones Campus, the structure was torn down a few years ago after suffering extensive damage from Hurricane Ike.)

Pictured above: The Bellfort Women’s Care Clinic at 7620 Bellfort, formerly the office of Dr. Hans Altinger, who also lived in Glenbrook Valley. Next on the tour:

This building with a mosaic tile front, next door at 7630 Bellfort, is the Houston Health Care Clinic. A few doors down at 7644 Bellfort is this small medical office building, also home to the Southeast Foot Clinic:

Across the street, on a 1.64-acre site at the corner of Leonora St., is this long-vacant 4-story Brutalist office building at 7603 Bellfort St.:

Two doors to the east is HISD’s Bellfort Early Childhood Center at 7647 Bellfort St., a reworking of a former medical building by a team from Kirksey Architecture a few years ago:

The project was funded by a 2007 bond issue.
