Office Building Planned for Corner Lot Costing 200000
A new office building project on a corner lot is planned with an estimated cost of 200000 dollars. The proposal notes location on Inn Streets and outlines construction scope and expected completion timelines.
Plans Drawn for New Office Building at Houston and Ivy
A major office building valued around 296000 is planned for the northeast corner of Houston and Ivy streets on property bought recently from Mrs M A Kylns. Washington Go financier M A Pharr and out of town businessmen will fund the project with local architect Lo to prepare plans. Construction may start within 40 days. The site, once linked to a theater by Klaw Erlainger interests, will now house a 100 by 150 foot lot with adjacent space later developed. The 100000 price at sale is noted as high for the area, with profits rising as nearby property values climb. Pharr’s agent declined details, but said work will begin after plans are finalized. The development aligns with a half million dollar complex planned between the Grand Opera House and the Argon hotel, signaling rapid area growth alongside Blair Armstrong’s new apartment building near Houston and Ivy, which will include retail space.
