Marmion Park is the former site of the Cooley Mansion, one of the first homes built in the Heights in 1892 for D. D. Cooley, treasurer and promoter of the Omaha and South Texas Land Company.
When the electric trolley lines were installed on Heights Boulevard, Mr. Cooley connected the electric lines to his house, making it one of the first in the Heights to have the modern convenience of electricity. The house was demolished in 1965 and the land remained vacant until purchased by the Houston Heights Association in 1979 and turned into Marmion Park, named after the last mayor of Houston Heights, J. B. Marmion.  |
