located on Jefferson avenue. This
seemed then to be the logical location
being on the direct route from the
business center 10 the leading resi-
dence section.
But now as the northern section OF
the city has made such wonderful
development, II has come to be rec
ognized better than Jefferson as a
residence locality and consequently
the automobile dealers have shifted
over toward this new aristocratic
center.
One by one the automobile dealers
have moved until now nearly every
company OF Importance in the coun-
try is represented on Woodward-ave.
The latest factory branch and SER
