Marker Text: ​Dr. William Taylor Hoard (1873-1945) moved to McKinney in 1898. A dentist and civic leader, he built this house in 1907. Exhibiting elements of the prairie school, colonial revival, and American foursquare styles of architecture, the home features a sullivanesque frieze under the eaves, fluted Corinthian columns, fish scale and regular shingled bands, and stained glass transoms. The home remained in the Hoard Family until 1971. (1987)
