Rosenberg House

|
The
circa 1859 Henry Rosenberg House was built by one of 19th-century Galveston’s
most prominent business leaders. First occupied by Henry and Letitia Rosenberg
in January 1860, the handsome residence was constructed in a graceful Italianate
style that combined innovative design and understated elegance. In addition to a
sitting room, a parlor and a dining room on the first level, there was a large
kitchen attached to the main house. An impressive staircase with burled posts
led to the second floor, where family members could enjoy the privacy of several
large bedrooms and the luxury of an indoor
bathroom.
