New Buildings

The Marietta Register, September 28, 1882

Something is being done in Marietta, as will be seen from the following list of new buildings, either just completed or in the process of erection:

On Front Street, George Blake has moved his clothing stock into his new two-story building, making a fine looking addition to the other business structures in the vicinity.

Glines & Snyder have the new addition to their store completed and already stocked with goods, giving them one of the largest store rooms in the city.

The Curtis property, recently purchased by Theodore F. Davis, has been altered and occupied by the C. & M. R. R. for a ticket and express office.

On the opposite side, a few doors above the Register office, is a new one-story brick owned by Mrs. Arendt of Missouri, which the Hon. Henry Bohl will soon occupy and fit up in elegant style for an insurance office.

Rolston, Hall & Company's new elevator, calculated to hold 35,000 bushels, looms up like an architectural Jumbo. Besides this they are making some repairs on their mill building.

Dirks, Bahlman & Company, just across the river, have also made some improvements, principally in the way of new machinery.

At the corner of Front and Montgomery streets, Mr. J. F. Ermlich has just erected a small wooden store building, which will be occupied by a party from Williamstown, W. Va., with groceries and notions.

Mr. F. S. Turner expects soon to build a very fine residence on Second Street next to Mrs. Franks', and below on the same street are two substantial houses nearly ready for tenants.

Mr. Thomas Cisler is pushing his one-story frame on Putnam Street, which will soon be ready for rent.

Mrs. J. H. Talbot is putting the finishing touches on his new house, corner of Washington and Third streets.

On Fifth Street, Styer, of Styer & Bukey, has his handsome residence well underway, and further down, near Putnam Street, Mr. George Blake is building for himself a two-story house.

Mr. Thomas McGrath has repaired his house on Sixth Street near Washington until it looks like new, and a few doors below him Mr. William Young has nearly completed a dwelling for himself.

On Third Street, near Butler, W. G. Way will soon have a handsome residence completed.
