Chapter 33, Section 33-222 of the Code of Ordinances, allows for City Council to designate a Landmark or Protected Landmark upon application by the property owner.
The application for Protected Landmark designation of "The Eldorado Ballroom" at 2310 Elgin Street, was initiated by the owner Ms. Eureka Gilkey, of Project Row Houses.
A public hearing was held on June 17, 2021 by the Houston Archaeological and Historical Commission and there were no objections to the designation. The Houston Archaeological and Historical Commission determined that the application satisfied applicable criteria of the ordinance and unanimously recommended approval of the Protected Landmark designation.
The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council approve the designation of 2310 Elgin Street as a Protected Landmark.
