The Rorists^ Review 



Fbbbuabt 19, 1920 



some of the neighboring buildings hous- 

 ing florists long term leases have been 

 made, but as these expire correspond- 

 ing advances are being made. 



The tenants of the two buildings on 

 Wabash avenue at the northeast corner 

 of Bandolph street have been notified 

 to vacate^ as demolition will start at 

 midnight April 30, a skyscraper to be 

 erected. The trade firms affected are 

 Percy Jones, Inc., and A. L. Vaughan & 

 Co. H. Van Gelder, president of the 

 Jones company, long ago protected that 

 concern by acquiring space in the Atlas 

 block, where the sales headquarters has 

 been located for nearly a year, but he 

 has a large stock of florists' supplies 

 stored in the basement and on the sec- 

 ond floor of one of the buildings to be 

 demolished. If he can not find other 

 convenient storage space he will have a 

 clearing sale. A. L. Vaughan & Co. 

 Jiave not yet announced their plans. 



Mr. Wienhoeber's Deal. 



In The Eeview last week it was re- 

 I>orted that E. Wienhoeber had sold his 

 home property in Highland Park and 

 bought a smaller place for himself and 

 his daughter, in Winnetka. The deal 

 got' into the real estate news of the 

 Sunday papers February 15. The 

 Tribune said of it: 



"On the north shore Thomas J. Byrne 

 bought the north thirteen acres of Ernst 

 Wienhoeber's 28-acre tract in High- 

 land Park on Green Bay road over- 

 looking the Skokie valley and just east 

 of the Bob-o-Link Golf Club. There is 

 a 10-room residence. The price re- 

 ported by Murray & Terry, brokers, was 

 $45,000. The same firm sold to Ernst 

 Wienhoeber the residence of Samuel H. 

 Gereley, of Winnetka, in Bryant ave- 

 nue, 200 feet south of Lloyd place, lot 

 85x190, for a reported consideration of 

 $28,000. ' '
