Located at 1406 Kirby Drive Houston, TX 77019. Rienzi is the perfect location to host intimate cocktail receptions for lovers of European decorative arts Rienzi is the MFAH house museum for European decorative arts. The former residence of Carroll Sterling Masterson and Harris Masterson III, Rienzi was designed by architect John F. Staub in 1952. In 1972 the Mastersons’ neighbor, architect Hugo V. Neuhaus, added a ballroom to the residence. This addition allowed the owners to expand their social activities and gave Harris Masterson more room for his growing collection of European ceramics, which today forms the core of the Rienzi Collection.
