Contractor Foley is at work on a ten-room house on the Virginia bluffs for Mrs. Susannah Carroll. The site is one of the most desirable in this region an the cost of the house will be in the neighborhood of $3,000.00. The structure will be of frame. (I wonder what that house is worth now? Ha!) Out in Harlem, the thriving suburb to the west of town, two more houses in addition to the numerous ones before mentioned are going up. Mr. J. C. Hurst's plans call for a handsome slate-roofed suburban home while Mr. Thomas Sullivan will erect two pretty six-room houses. Over ten houses are now in course of construction.
