Whitcomb & Keller Re-
ceive Write Up in Ma
tional Real Estate Jour-
nal.

The October issue of the National
Real Estate journal contains an
interesting article relative to the
building activities of WhitcOmb &
Keller. Pictures are shown and de-
scripuOn of development given.
Oak Park-FOurth Addition Indi-
ana Avenue. Vassar Park and
Edgewater Place are all discussed
at considerable length. We quote
as follows:
WhitcOmb & Keller believe that
by the construction of houses in an
addition they give a more perman-
ent and increasing value to every
lot I'm the addition. They believe
that the cities that meet the hous-
ing needs squarely with an ade-
quate building program will be bet
toer cities to live I'm. IL thus comes
that Whitcomb & Riley build
houses on at least One-half the lots
i'm their additions"

"All beautiful and no two alike"
may be said Of the houses in Edge
water Place WhitcOmb & Keller
take particular pride in building
houses that are HOMES in every
sense of the word. The artistic
dwellings erected in Edgewater are
the result Of years Of experience
and a desire on the part. of the
builders TO excel in beauty and
convenience all previous efforts.
