Tanglewood Area TX History


The Humble Pipeline Company (now Exxon) first owned Tanglewood. The William G. Farrington Company started developing in the 1930s when it acquired the land.

The neighborhood first offered seven air-conditioned ranch-style homes in its first section.

Tanglewood came from “Tanglewood Tales” by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

Each lot had two oaks planted, in addition to three oaks on every corner. Tanglewood remains one of the most beautiful wooded areas in Houston.

Sales were slow for the first few months. Interest in Tanglewood homes increased after the flooding in Harris County. The area had high water drainage. It was one of the few areas in the county that weren’t affected by the floods.

The Tanglewood Homes Association (THA) started in 1967. Today, it still maintains the neighborhood’s common areas. It enforces deed restrictions and hires additional security as well.

The Tanglewood Area improved over the years and belonged to one of Houston’s most expensive neighborhoods.
