They have commenced construction on a number of modern, well-appointed homes in the American, Swiss, Spanish and English architecture, through their engineering department, Joseph M. Le- Vee being consulting engineer, who has made an extensive study of modern homes of the above type, having just returned from an extensive tour through the west. The firm has erected a modern Spanish office with beautiful landscap- ing, at the corner of Ridge road and Highland avenue. Also a number of ornamental gateway poles have been constructed at the entrance to this highly restricted section. These homes are to be sold at a very reasonable price and will be ready for occupancy this fall. Some of the contracts awarded for the work are Gleixner Construction company and Carlson and Danielson, the mason work; C. S. Gustafson and company, carpenter work; J. A. Tor- stenson and company, decorating, and Fred Flader, plumbing and heating. Fred Buck is the active member of the firm, having spent a great many years in subdivision development work. B. F.
