The Max Brooks House is a private residence in the Pemberton Heights neighborhood of Austin Texas. The house is notable as the home of Austin architect Max Brooks and his wife, Defense Department Adviser, Marietta Brooks. The Brookses were friends of US President Lyndon Baynes Johnson; close enough friends to have a presidential sink from the White House installed in this house. The sink was very likely removed from the White House during Jacqueline Kennedy's major restoration project. - AsNotedIn
