Bo Bi READY a eAnnouncing -- Ghe JOHN EVANS eApariment Homes CO-OPERATIVELY OWNED PALATIALthree miilion dollar residence--a thriftier and more elegant home for those who seek the comfort and conver ier.ce of the apartment dwelling! This, ina sentence, is the story of THE Jon Evans to be built on the rorthwest corner of Hinman Avenue and Davis Street by Victor C. Carlson. In the United States and nineteen foreign countries 30,000,000 families are enjoying the manifold advantages of co-operative 'ownership. In Greater New York alone are $180,000,000 in co- operative apartment buildings. Along fashionable Fifth Avenue and: Park Lane and in our own Chicago are dozens of beautiful homes of this type--eminently successful--providing luxurious dwellings for their owners; conserving the wastefulness of rent and returning substantial profits for the owner-investors. In Evanston THE Jou~ Evans will be a residence of outstanding beauty and prestige, meeting the call for spacious, attractive apart- ment homes with a plan of ownership that has been tested and proven sound. Plans are ready for inspection. Excavation has already been started. Applications for apartments will be handled in rotation as received. No apartments will be sold to speculators.
