  have 
  open 
  fireplaces 
  furnished 
  with 
  tiled 
  facings 
  and 
  hearth 
  

   and 
  mantels. 
  The 
  bathrooms 
  are 
  wainscoted 
  and 
  paved 
  

   with 
  tiles, 
  and 
  are

  with 
  porcelain 
  fixtures 
  and 
  ex- 
  

   posed 
  nickel-plated 
  plumbing. 
  There 
  are

   and 
  bathrooms 
  on 
  the 
  third 
  floor, 
  and 
  all 
  are 
  fitted 
  replete. 
  

   The 
  effect 
  of 
  the 
  house 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  marked 
  simplicity 
  and 
  

   delicacy, 
  and 
  the 
  thought 
  has 
  been 
  to 
  produce 
  a 
  building 
  with 
  

   its 
  structural 
  lines 
  to 
  form 
  the 
  architectural 
  feature, 
  rather 
  

   than 
  to 
  depend 
  too 
  much 
  on 
  a 
  superfluous 
  ornamentation.
