Many people dont know and should ,the old house at 505 West 10th street with a tower on its side belonged too Judge Muse, who built the home in 1890s, i met his son willard in 1975 when he was around 80 years old....the rest of the story I will leave up to the public and comment later on..A/T, Urban historical observer.

I didn't know anything like that in Oak Cliff existed anymore. Let alone Dallas.......

hmmmm....

I found the house using the street view version of Google Earth. However, I only have an adobe acrobat reader on this thing, so I can do a print screen to word doc, then open the word doc as a pdf, then save the pdf as a jpeg. Ugg!!!

It is real easy to drive by, while why do you insist in using a webb page wheelchair, which has little effect, beside.....the house is still there and it is time the topic came up after 35 years, Willard died in 1978/79 and so this is reward from me for telling me so many wonderful events that took place from his vision...his father was Judge Muse of the 144th, i think that is right criminal and civil courts for many years.....

And they were descendents of the Gerorge Washington family, and held a large collection of artifacts from that era..in dallas of all places....several times i have seen historical events and they cant seemt to get the history correct and they were paid to do the work....

I used Google street scene, also. Kinda tough to "just drive by", since I live over 700 miles from there. Although John lives in the area, many of us do not.

The Muse family had run an old antique store out of the house for 50 years, Judge Muse had many a party and event there,while it was the one symbol and landmark of the area on 10th street for over 5 decades, dating from the mid 1890s...and it is still standing today...
