NEW BUILDINGS

An Eight Family Block to be Erected

[People’s Press, 25 September 1906]

H.A. Rose is preparing to erect a large residence building on North Main street, extending from the rear of his brick store on the corner to Crowther’s bake shop. There will be eight complete dwellings in the building, four on the ground floor and four on the second flat. The building will be brick veneered; they will make a wonderful improvement in that section of town, and as well appreciatively assist in filling the urgent need for dwelling houses in town.

Messrs. Goodwin & Ross have decided to enlarge their store premises by extending the building back to line with the rear of the opera hall building. This will give the building a total depth of eighty feet. This will give space for their rapidly increasing business.

Plans for both of the above buildings are being prepared by Architect T.L.Nichols.
