| Marker Text | Dr. S. T. Turner (1856-1945), who moved to El Paso in 1889 as a contract physician for the Southern Pacific Railroad, became an influential medical leader on the local and state levels. In 1910 he had this colonial revival residence built. Constructed by H. T. Ponsford, it is believed to have been designed by the noted El Paso architect Henry C. Trost. Since 1946 it has housed offices of the El Paso County Medical Society, of which Dr. Turner had been an active member. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1982 |
