AD Stenger in Barton Hills
I just realized that I never published this collection of AD Stenger home pictures.
Sorry about that, didn’t mean to be holding out on you.
AD Stenger was perhaps the orginal mid-century modern developer in Austin. He started work on the Barton Hills homes in the early 50s. A UT student, he never earned his degree and unlike other local contemporaries did mostly spec homes. Stenger homes are largely grouped in the Barton Hills and Rollingwood areas. Some of the floor plans are used throughout the developments, but others are unique without known copies.
A quirky guy, he is survived by his widow who still lives in Rollingwood (in the last house he built).
I put these pictures up over on the Austin livemodern forum when they were first taken.
