New Bungalow of Bricks
Material is being placed on the ground for a brick bungalow which R. M. Smith will build in Park Addition. It will be one of the handsomest residences in Bend, when completed.
The plans are for six rooms on the first floor and four on the second, but Mr. Smith does not intend to finish the upper floor rooms now. The walls of the house will be made of red Bend-manufactured brick, alternating with rough black clinker bricks laid so that the ends project a little beyond the other brick. This will give a rustic effect. In fact the feature of the house will be Its rusticity, this idea being carried out in all the construction. There will be a front porch and a smaller back porch, and in the living room will be a big fireplace.
Ozro W. Tansey has the contract for the brick work, and construction will be started soon as possible. The location of the house I across the street from the stone, bungalow of W. C. McCulston.
