ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH One-story house with asbestos shingle siding, covered stoop, pyramidal hipped roof, and exposed rafter tails. The house at 1010 Springdale Road, addressed historically as 3707 Goodwin Avenue, was built prior to 1940 for William P. and Carolyn Goodwin. William Goodwin, son of pioneer farmer William C. Goodwin, operated a farm and dairy. Carolyn A. Goodwin, known as Carrie, commuted into Austin to work as a clerk at the Attorney General’s office. The Goodwin family owned the property until at least 1980. Before 1984, it was sold to a petrochemical transport company.
