contemplated.
A water color drawing of the build
ing. as it will look when completed is
now on exhibition in the window of
Hymes' art store on Bull street. The
accompanying cut was taken from this
drawing.
Plans for a four-story structure were
prepared some time ago. but the di-
rectors of the two corporations inter-
ested in the building thought a FIVE
story building would be better Mr.. H.
W. Witcover, the architect, was ac-
cordngly asked to make plans for the
higher building. The drawing and plans
were submitted some time ago, and the
directors Immediately decided to adopt
them.
The building will be of white Geor-
gia marble and the style of architec-
ture will be classic. The first story
is TO be given a bank character by
large and massive arch openings and
banded treatment to the walls. The
bank character is further emphasized
by heavy belt course over the first
story, thus making the first story act
as a base for the suDerstructure.
