May 19, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Clear Wooded Land for Residences in Alles Sunset "Sub." Increasing activity is evident at the Alles Sunset subdivision in Winnetka. The wooded portion is being under- brushed and cleared for building, and a fine colonial residence is under con- struction. It is in dark red art brick. L. J. Foster is the contractor. The house contains seven large rooms, with ample halls and closet space, two bathrooms in colored tiles, lavatory on first floor and one in the basement. The garage is attached and is of brick to correspond to the house, plastered and hot-water heated. There is a large attic. The house is located on the east side of Locust avenue extension south, which at this point curves to the south- west. It overlooks Mt. Pleasant, Sun- set and Hill roads. Another residence of English type |] is planned for the near future. I. Bicknell Ring of 1092 Cherry street, is in charge of the office of the subdivision, at the corner of Willow and Locust.
