As you approach A Place in Time, you realize the house to the left is identical in design. These homes have been known as the “twin houses” since they were built. Kurt Keidel bought a portion of out lots 48-49 in 1910 from Elizabeth Ochs for $1200. He put $200 down and had four years to pay the remainder at eight percent interest. Kurt and his brother Felix, sons of Dr. Albert and Mathilde Eisfled Keidel, married sisters, Gretchen and Hattie Pfeiffer from Selma, Alabama. In 1914, the two brothers hired a San Antonio architect to design identical houses in the “country” for their wives. The architect reversed the plan for Felix so the houses would be mirror images of each other. That same year, one carpentry crew built both houses. Kurt was a pharmacist and owned the Keidel Drug Store, and Felix was a dentist. They both worked with their other two brothers, Dr. Victor Keidel, a physician, and Dr. Werner Keidel, a dentist. Kurt filled pharmacy orders both from Latin and German prescriptions for his father, Dr. Albert Keidel. |
