Roberto Zuniga moved to Laredo in 1916 from Monterrey, Mexico and established a custom brokerage business in 1918 with his brother Alfonso Zuniga. Roberto and Elvira Zuniga hired the local John O. Buenz Lumber Company to build this house in 1923 in the fashionable Heights neighborhood. The Prairie School style house features stucco over brick construction, box columns on the porch, and a flat roof with parapet. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1996 |
