Say hello to 1883 Adolph & Regina Frenkel House, an architectural gem located in the Island’s Silk Stocking Historic District. The home is one of three near-identical Folk Victorian houses built by the Galveston Real Estate and Loan Association. In 1894, Bavarian immigrant Adolph Frenkel purchased the home for himself and his wife Regina (hence the home’s name).
