==House details==
The multi-story Italianate limestone Anton Wulff House is at located at 107 King William Street in the King William Historic District in San Antonio. It was built 1869–1870 on land originally owned by Pedro Huizar, and which was once part of San Antonio de Valero Mission. In 1902, the Wulff family sold the house to Arthur and Elise Guenther. In the 19th century, the property included a boathouse and a bathhouse. Flooding in 1921 resulted in a 1926 flood-control measure that included re-routing part of the San Antonio River. Prior to that, the Wulff house was adjacent to the river.
After a 1950 sale to F. G. and Kathryn Antonio, the structure was converted into individual apartments. Later, the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners remodeled the house after they purchased the structure; and in 1968 it received a zoning exemption due to its inclusion in the King William District.〔
In 1974, the San Antonio Conservation Society (SACS) raised enough funds to purchase the home for $250,000, half of which came from the Sheerin Foundation. The Economic Development Administration provided a grant, 20% of which was matched by SACS's fund raising, to restore the home. In 1975, SACS moved its headquarters into the Wulff home. In honor of the property's original owner, an adjacent lot is named the Pedro Huizar Garden.
