WILLIAM A. HUNT.
Architect.
8O7 LOnSdale Building.

Duluth has many prominent bust
ness houses, which have added much
to the prestige and importance OF
our city In the eyes of other sections
Of the country, but probably no firm
or individual in any line has stood
higher than the we'll known archi-
tectural firm of Palmer & Hunt,
which is succeeded by Mr.. VIM. A.
Hunt, who will continue the bust
ness at their large and finely ap-
pointed offices at No. 307 Lonsdale
Building. Certainly no firm has oc-
cupied a higher place In the minds
of those acquainted with their work
than has this firm of architects, and
all our citizens will be glad to know
that Mr.. Hunt will still be found at
the offices in the Lonsdale Building.
This firm has designed many of the
largest and most important public,
commercial and private buildings in
this city and surrounding cities. and
wherever their work is known 1t is
recognized as the best that modern
ideas and practical knowledge can
produce.
Mr.. Hunt, who will continue the
business, is an enthusiastic student
of the latest and best in the archt-
tectural art, and is constantly study
ing to improve upon the methods and
designs of his art. AS a result he
has kept we'll abreast of the many
have been made in recent years, and
the advances which have been made
in the architectural art as we'll as in
all other lines of human endeavor
and thought have found him in a
receptive mood and ready to take
advantage of any progress which
might be made. For this reason the
patrons of this firm have always
felt assured that they would receive
the very best that advanced meth
DDS and modern thought can supply.
Mr.. Hunt is a practical man who
understands to the smallest detail
every phase of his art, and it is al
ways a pleasure for contractors and
builders to know that building is to
be erected according to his plans and
under his supervision, as they can
rest assured that all they have to do
is TO follow carefully the designs
furnished and the Instructions given.
He is recognized as past master In
his art, and gentleman who Is ever
on the lookout for the best ideas in
regard to his line of activity.
The gentlemen comprising the
firm of Palmer & Hunt are among
the best shown and most highly re-
spected citizens of Duluth, who have
done much to bring this city to the
front of the beautiful and substan-
tial cities of the country, from an
architectural standpoint, by their
work in their line, and by their con-
slant efforts to keep the architecture
of the buildings erected in this city
up to the best standards of modern
ideas in architecture and building,
and to combine grace and beauty
with the substantial in these build
ings.
Duluth has reason to feel grateful
that the architectural art in this city
has been represented by such COM
petent gentlemen as Messrs. Palmer
! & Hunt, as we'll as proud of the re-
suit of their endeavors, and it is a
source of qualification to know that
this section of the country is not
to lose the services of Mr.. VIM. A.
Hunt, who is to continue his labors
in this field.
Among some the large buildings
designed and superintended by the
firm of Palmer & Hunt are the Cen
trail High School, the Normal School
building, the Marshall-Wells build
ing, the Wolvin building, the Ions
dale building, the F. A. Patrick
building, the Stone-Ordean-Wells
building, and many other Of the fin
est buildings in this city.
