WINNETKA TALK May 3, 1928 * MORTGAGES § Construction Loans ON Bote. EV NoRTeAGE (1 Bw gZoa Greenleaf 888 Hill and Stone Purchase Residence in Winnetka Hill & Stone, with offices in Win- netka and Wilmette, have purchased, in the former village, the residence property at 590 Lincoln avenue, hav- ing a frontage of 75 feet and adjoin- ing on the north their 25 foot lot, on which is located a two story brick building occupied by the Community Kitchen on the first floor, with the Hadley Correspondence School for the Blind on the second floor. The price paid for the property is not given, nor have the plans of the new owners been announced, except that the former owners, Dr. Lillian E. Taylor and Dr. Margaret N. Levick will not vacate it for some time, it 1s said. : The house on the property is a two and one-half story, nine room stucco residence, with three baths. Fiber board has now been trans- formed under a manufacturing process so that it is moisture proof, non- porous and nonwarping. And by a glazing process it is given a tile finish. The result of this is that among its many varied uses it is now an at- tractive and serviceable asset in any bathroom or kitchen. Look Ahead a Few Years and imagine the value of a homesite on Lake Michigan--within easy distance of the city and accessible to all the many advantages of the North Shore. Deere Park is the "last stand" of lake locations of equal desirability. Its beauties are beyond words, its values beyond estimate. Private beach-- private park--abund- ant foliage--winding streets--all improvements in and paid for--many of the best people already occupying homes here, or building. A few of the choice lots--some as low as $120 per front foot--are still left. Liberal terms.
