HAS TRAVELLED FROM FLORIDA TO
CALIFORNIA AND CHOOSES SITE IN
ARDMORE TO ERECT BEAUTIFUL HOME

j. o. Armstrong who recently moved
10 this city from Florida has purchased
a tract of land fronting COO feet on the
road to Dornick Hills Country Club
north Of the city and will build hand
some home on the property.
The purchase was made from the
Ardmore Investment Company. The
property is located on the knoll be-
tween Bloomfield Seminary and the
country club property. Mr.. Armstrong
has already begun work to improve the
property for home. In addition to the
construction Of a home he will put out
shrubbery, a lake will be built and a
sunken garden will be a feature OF the
improvements.
Mr.. Armstrong is a wealthy real es-
tate man. He comes here from the
famed state of Florida and he has gone
from Florida TO California and says
that he would rather have a home on
the property he has selected than In
any other state of the union. He Is q
brother to Mrs. Lee l.. Gait of Cedar
Lee this city.
The Ardmore Investment Company
composed Of Roy NJ. Johnson, Edward
Gait and Writ Franklin now own the
property reaching from the city limits
to the Dornick Hills Country Club COM
prising about 1000 acres. The property
was purchased in most part from form
er Gov. Lee l.. Cruce. 1t is ideally
located for homes and 1t will mot b.
many months until it will be dotted
with many Of the most handsome
homes that have been built here. a
portion of the estate is to be made eX'
elusive and only such persons will be
allowed to make purchases as agrees
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1921-04-17

to put in certain kinds of improve
ments and portion of the property
will be open to the general public for
the building of homes.
A 30-foot highway is to be built from
the city limits through this property
to the country club. The road will be
built of six inches of gravel rolled and
oiled and will be very similar to the
roads that are built in the suburban
districts in California. This road will
be open only for automobile traffic,
heavily loaded wagons and trucks will
be diverted around the water tower on
the county highway running toward
Springer and Woodford.
The view from this property is beau
tful. To the south the busy city with
its thousands of lights can be seen after
nightfall and during the day the roofs
Of the city can be seen to the south,
and to the north lie the ArbuclIle noun
tains. 1t is in close proximity to the
Country Club and to the Rod and Gun
Club and to the city lake property
which will be provided with every con.
venience that the city has and the
homes there will have every modern
convenience.
The Edward Gait home and the Roy
NJ johnson home are both on this
property and they are the most beau
tiful homes OF the entire city and many
others of the same rank will be built
between those homes and the city. The
demand is here now for this addition to
be opened up. A part Of it has already
been plated by one Of the finest land
scape gardeners Of the country and II
will be made into the most beautiful
residence section OF Ardmore.
