Wooda StoreAp.rt..t Sbuetare Coaforaaa to Home Area Appearaace Keeping the exclusive residential sections of the north shore distinctly residential in character, even in the business section, is the problem north shore builders are now solving. There is now nearing completion in the Hubbard Woods section of Winnetka a new combination apartment and business building in the authentic English architectural motive. Its c~st will run well over a quarter of a million dollars, and it presents a new advantalfe in design and layout which gives at unusual attraction as an apartment residence. AU apartments have their entrance in a side street court. This and the beautiful exterior of the building entirely dissociate it from the stores which occupy frontage on the other street. The location is in the heart of the Hubbard Woods section of . Winnetka, at the northwest corner of Merrill street and 14inden avenue, and separated from stations of the Chicago and North Western and Chicago, North Shore and Milwaukee railroads by a block of lawn and park. The construction is of pressed English brick, and the upper stories will be done in attractive contrast of half timber and stucco, topped by English sloping slate roofs. The building is of three stories and will contain eight large stores and twenty-four apartments, eight five room, twelve four room, and four three room. The interior appointments will . be of unusual quality, floors ·of oak and trim of birch. All apartments will have colored tile bathrooms with showers and the latest type of porcelain accessories. All apartments will have electric refrigerating systems and rolla-way beds. The four and five room apartments will have full kitchens; the threes will have kitchenettes. This building will be a handsome addition to the high character of development which prevails in this section of the north shore. The plans were drawn by Huszagh and Hill, architects. W. G. McNulty and Brother are the general contractors. Work is so far advanced that applications are now being taken by McGuire and Orr, agents The Paul Schroeder house at 418 Greenleaf has been rented to T. H. Heppeard of Detroit.
