"Our Greenhouse Is a Model 



of Perfection." -A. M.Robertson 



We erected this Metropolitan Greenhouse 

 for Mr. M. BurriU on his estate at Jericho, 

 Lt, I. 



The contract for this Metropolitan patented 

 best eave, full iron frame greenhouse with 

 bent eave vestibule and stucco service 

 house, also included the masonry, flower 

 box and trellis work. 



Being partitioned In the middle, this green- 

 house has two compartments, which can be 

 heated and controlled separately. 



Mr. A. M. Robertson, superintendent of this 

 estate writes that "it is a model of per- 

 fection." 



Metropolitan service goes far beyond the 

 mere mechanical process of construction. 

 It strives constantly to increase the pro- 

 ducing power of the owner's investment in 

 his greenhouse.
