Appleton Clark Gets Contract
to Arrange Structure at F
and Thirteenth.

Appleton P. Clark jr., architect OF
this city has won the contract to draw
plans for the proposed structure to be
erected on the corner of mystery" at
Thirteenth and F streets northwest.
A search for an architect to draw
plans for the proposed structure to be
Polls theater. Chase's, Gimbel Brothers
ings, has been in progress for the past
two months. Mr.. Clark's plans were
chosen to the exclusion of two others
which were submitted to the owners OF
the property.
That the secret is being kept dark Is
men In the offices Of Mr.. Clark have
not been informed as to what the build
ing will be, or who will own It
Excavations niw In course Of pro-
gress on the corner Of Thirteenth and
F streets are about completed. and a
building permit with specifications will
be filed shortly if building operations
are to proceed.
Building To Be Large.
The structure will be large and erect
ed on a fifteen-foot foundation. Build
ing regulations allow a building in F
street in that vicinity to exceed in
height twenty feet the width OF the
street. F street is recorded by the
DuliulIS inspector as llO Ieet Wluc az
that corner 1t is possible that the
building will be 130 feet high, the aver
age height Of an eleven-story building.
Whether the many rumors which have
enveloped the proposed structure have
any bearing on the truth or not, Is only
known by four people in the city. They
are James l.. Parsons, the builder; Mr..
Clark. the architect; Lee d. Latimer.
and ]. Eris Powell. Of the F. H. Smith
Company, real estate brokers.
Parsons May Have Charge.
James L. Parsons who has been in
charge of wrecking the buildings on
that site and the excation for a fif-
teen foot foundation will probably
have charge of building the proposed
structure.
