Fairview - The William J. Bryce House

A native of Scotland, William J. Bryce (1861-1944) moved to Fort Worth in 1883 and developed a successful brick contracting business. In 1893 he constructed this house. The mayor of Fort Worth from 1927 to 1933, Bryce lived here until his death. One of the rare examples of a chateauesque dwelling in Texas, Fairview features Richardsonian arches and Gabled Dormers.
