FEATURES Of BUILDING
ON CONNECTICUT AVENUE
Structures of Artistic Charac-
ter the Rule on Washing
tons Fifth Avenue"

An interesting feature Of the i'm
proVements which are in .progress
along Connecticut avenue lies in the
artistic character of the business struc-
lures which are taking the place of
fashionable residences. The remodeling
is after the style of the new high class
business buildings in New York, and is
made in accordance with the belief that
this street is to be the 5th avenue of
the Capital city.
One of the most important Of the
buildings now being erected is at 1912
18Th street, which faces the avenue just
below the British legation and near the
corner of 18th street and Jefferson
pace Here the front of one OF the
nne residences of the capital has been
torn away and a front of white sand
stone and plate glass is taking its
place. High Corinthian stone columns
will uphold the first story. The two
floors above win be Of plate glass framed
In Verd-antfque copper and the fourth
story will be Of stone.
The building Is being changed and re-
modelled throughout for business pur-
poses. The ground floor will be wide
and deep store. the interior Of which is in
mahogany. with meZzanine balcony in
the rear. The architect is Appleton p.
Clark. jr, and the builder Is Louis EN-
inert The property belongs to Frank
q. Carpenter. and 1t is In charge Of
Randall II. Hagner.

this fact in his plans and the block Of
houses which will be erected along the
north side of the entrance to the park
bids fair to rank with the most attractive
blocks in the Capital.
The first operation is in Hobart street,
and this street will probably be entirely
built up before anything can be done
along the boulevard entering the Zoo, as
Mr.. Breuninger will wait until consid-
cradle progress has been made with the
Commissioners before he determines the
character of the architecture that will be
used.
practically all the houses to be built or
this SoO-foot stretch will be detached
and many of them will range in price as
high as $4,000. It is not unlikely that
the street, when completed will present
an appearance similar to that of Park
road west of 18th street. for the boule-
ward is to be considerably lower than the
building lots on the north of it and ter
races can be used effectively.

struction. twenty-five are on the north
side and ten are on the south side

Hobart street
The plan is unique in that such a large
section of ground has been built up on
the idea of section uniformity. Mr.. Breu-
ninger has erected hundreds of houses in
Mount Pleasant, Columbia Heights and
other northwest residential sections and
other builders have taken advantage OF
the rapid trend in that direction, but
rarely has large a tract been develop
ed along the idea of harmony of sur
roundings.
The advantages of this system of devel-
opment are obvious. The builder owns
enough land to devote a considerable
part of it to ornamentation, and in max
ing his plans may feel sure that the
value Of the houses he erects will not be
decreased by less desirable developments
in the same section.

fore this illustrious lady will take q

are others. perhaps. more lovable who
ought not to be overlooked. Izaak
Walton did something handsomer for
Stafford than select it for his birth

have been of service to the poor. Per-
haps no town was ever so generously
provided with friars and saints and
martyrs all OF whom make capital raw

Plans for Hobart Street.


The observation-disclosures idea will not be con-
fined to the entrance boulevard, but
number of detached and semi-detached
residences are planned for that part OF
Hobart street nearest the park.
The work of the entire operation is be-
ing rushed as rapidly as is consistent with
good building, and more IMAM 20 Worh
men We're on the job every day this Week
Not the least part of the operation is the
excavation work. At least 10000 cubic
yards of dirt have to be moved Some loea
of the magnitude of this undertaklng
may be had by comparison with the great
pit of the new Arlington Hotel from
which only about 1900 cubic yards were
removed.
The entire project. when completed. will
represent an investment OF almost
81. 100000 There are to be about 100
houses, ranging In price from about $I,oUV
to something like $4,000.
Roth of the streets on which the houses
are to be erected are unusually broad.
The park entrance from the Avenue OF
the Presidents begins with width of 300
feet, but narrows rapidly to its normal
width of ninety feet.
Near the end of the boulevard circle
will be built, in the center of which is to
be an attractive park, and Mr.. Breunin-
ger had determined to build street con-

instead of sixty as at first contemplated.
Mr. Breuninger believes that If the
Commissioners proceed as rapidly as is
contemplated with the new park en-
trance the entire operation may be COM
pleted in one year. 1t is expected the
Hobart street part may be completed this
winter. IL the weather is as favorable for
building as 1t was last year.
Tract Comprises Six Acres.
This is the last large tract Of land
remaining in Mount Pleasant south of
Park road. 1t comprises little more
than six acres of ground, and no other
| available tract is nearly as large. 1t Is
| therefore. the only remaining opportunity
| for development along the idea OF unity
of surroundings.
This Washington builder has played an
| important part in the development OF
Mount Pleasant: In addition to his ouild-
| ings in Columbia Heights and other Sec
tons, he has built more than 100 homes
| in Mount Pleasant alone. On 10Th street
between kilbourne place and Park road
there are thirty-two of his houses; on
Park road between 18th and 10th streets
there are thirty-eight; on Harvard street
just east of the Avenue of the Presidents
there are fifteen; on 18th street just north
of Park road there are ten; on Hall place
there are eight just completed, and BLOCKS
of eight to ten Breuninger houses may Dc
found scattered all over Mount Pleasant.
The statement that this is the only
remaining tract of land in Mount Pleas
ant of any considerable size illustrates
the wonderful growth of the Capital city
and the trend of residence seekers to-
| ward the northwest section. just Few
wears ago there was no Mount Pleasant.
Today Mount Pleasant is well filled
