El Paso, El Paso County
In 1895 the Child Culture Study Circle was officially organized as the current Topics Club for the purpose of improving the physical, intellectual, and moral conditions of the community. The name was changed three years later to the Woman's Club of El Paso. This structure, built for the members in 1916, was designed by O. H. Thorman and constructed by H. T. Ponsford and Sons. It reflects influences of Georgian and beaux arts styling. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1980
