Justin, Texas - Since 1883


 
Welcome to the
Justin Texas Area Historical Society
 Modern Victorian Multi-Family Units
 


Modern living in modern Multi-Family housing doesn't have to be without a boatload of charm!
Developments exist that blend in wonderfully with historic districts.

Examples exist in Historic McKinney and the City of Denton.
and best of all, all the wonderful amenities and beautiful designs don't cost an arm & a leg.
Prices are on par with the mundane apartments, duplexes, condo's and town houses.
Who doesn't like a free upgrade? Enjoy First Class for the same price as flying coach!   ;-)
