The only reason I wanted to go to McGregor, Tx is that I was told it had the best cigar lounge in the area. It does, and that will be a later post. But it also has a few interesting doors, and buildings.

I want to buy the purple building, the Samsler Building built in 1897, and turn it into loft apartments, or a really unique home. In its present use, it’s going to waste.

For more Thursday Doors, go to Dan’s site.

  1. First off, I think this is Thursday Doors’ first half ghost door. You’re right, this building is going to waste and it would make a wonderful residence. I love the details in the brick, especially around the windows.

    It’s seen better days but it still looks sound so maybe some enterprising soul will come along and do something with it. Like Dan says’, it would make a great residence.
