The Discovery of Shary Heights
- Details
The Museum of South Texas History hosts Logan Dovalina to present “The Discovery of Shary Heights: A Mid-Century Journey,” a Sunday Speaker Series presentation at 2 p.m., October 20.
This presentation will focus on Shary Heights, an undiscovered post-war neighborhood in Mission, Texas. Shary Heights is an example of mid-century dynamics, showcasing landscape architecture, community development and the importance of flora in modernist living. In its early days, it served as a canvas for five Valley architects and welcomed dignitaries, including former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Today, it is nominated for the National Register of Historic Places and is the subject of an upcoming book, “Una Vida Moderna: Self-Discovery and Architecture in the Texas-Mexico Borderlands.”
