UNIQUE TYPE Of
OUTSIDE FINISH
Of NEW
|DAVEY BUILDING

In the exterior finish of the new
Davey apartment house an innova-
tion has been brought to Phoenix.
Rocbond stone stucco was selected by
Mr.. Dayey to cover the outside walls
OF the new structure and the appear
ance of this new composition finish
completed has fully justified the ex-
pectations OF the builder. The Roc
bond finish gives to the building an
appearance of weight and solidity
that no ordinary plaster or stucco can
rival. The play of light on the COM
position stone and granite surface
impresses the beholder with the idea
that the walls are built of precious
stones.
Complete harmony exists between
the Rocbond walls and the red tile
roof of the new apartment house and
the architectural adaptation of the
Spanish mission style Is enhanced.
Although Just being introduced into
the west, Rocbond has been popular
in the east for some time and is being
used extensively in the renovation of
old buildings. Rochond sets into a
dense hard mass which becomes like
stone. The particles of polished
stone adhere TO it's plastic base and
the stucco becomes q part of the wall
itself, proof against any climate and
temperature.

manded above all the inclusion of
nothing but the best material and

The house was designed by Mr..
Davey himself and is a pleasing
adaptation of the Spanish and mis-
sion type of architecture. The out
side finish is of "Rocbond" stucco in
two tones, an innovation in this city,
although very popular in the east.
The roof is of red tile. surmounted
by two towers. An arched driveway
divides the house into two parts on
the ground floor and the second
story spans the entire width of the
structure. The entrance to the drive

that il is said to exclude the summer
heat, much as the solid masonry

heat generated within the house so
that in winter this is another advan-
