He owned and cultivated the surrounding Uptown Dallas area, including the site where Bowen House is currently located (2614 Boll Street) The house was built for the Bowen family in 1874. It is one of the few remaining examples of the simple, wood frame, vernacular farmhouse prevalent in Dallas County during the latter part of the 19th century.
