Death and civic progress in old Boston notes
In Boston letters, Alphonso Ross, long-time Advertiser financial editor, is mourned for his old school gentility and public-spirited restraint. The author admires light colored brick in post fire construction, praises specific Kingston Bedford and Beacon street projects, and commends the Milwaukee brick trend.
