New Buildings.

we Iuft COllGCtCd llOll thC oON Cl al
architects of our city the following
list of buildings projected and in
course of construction. They will give
a fair index of the solid growth of our
city. There is no shoddy about any
of the buildings here described; they
are substantial and in many instances
costly, and would be credit to any
growing city. The list is of course in
complete, as many buildings are in
course of construction that have not
been placed in the hands of tl,c arch
itects.

dence corner Tenth and Pearl-cottage

There are also plans in Mr.. Davis
Office for magnificent residence to be

600.
d. V. Waldron proposes to spend
$4,000 in building at Washington
Gardens and ornamenting his present
buildings.
Mr.. Davis has made plans and draw
ings of these Improvements, which he
now has in his office.
The work now in the hands of Mr..
Davis will aggregate about $106, 600
a magnificent showing both for the
architect and for the city. Although
a comparatively new conner in Los
Angeles, he has already developed an
immense patronage, and he has the
confidence of our best and most
wealthy citizens, as the foregoing list
will show.
MR.. S. H. BUCHANAN, BUILDER,
Has in course of construction the
three elegant residences of Messrs M.
J. Newmark, Ka.per Cohen and Nor
ris A. Newmark, which will be more
extensively noticed below. He also
commenced yesterday upon a car
house for the San Pedro street rail-
way, located near the depot of the l..
A. d l. r. r. The building will be
40x60 feet, and will cost about $1,000.
Mr.. Buchanan has been in Los AD-
geles about two years, We believe, and
in that time he has constructed some
of the finest buildings to be found
in the city. He stands deservedly
high in his profession, and has won
his position by square, honest work.
Many of the less important buildings
Mr.. Buchanan plans himself, and ex-
ecutes them with all the accuracy at
tending the direction of an architect.
No better example of his efficiency is
needed than the fact that he has been
entrusted with the three cottages
which it is said will be the models of
architecture in Los Angeles.
