HOUSE AND GARDEN 
October, 1913 
Mr. Shrigley’s house is a good example of hollow tile construction, twelve-inch blocks being used on the first story and eight-inch above. To 
finish this, plaster and stucco are applied directly to the tile. In the floors of the entrance vestibule and the porches hollow tile and concrete 
were used and finished with cement 
THE HOME 
OF 
MR. LEIGH H. SHRIGLEY 
JENKINTOWN 
PENNA. 
The house seems larger than the plan in¬ 
dicates because most of the first sto y 
is observed on entering the hall

As the house faces north, the vestibule entrance 
was necessary. The door is set back about 
three feet and in winter a portable frame with 
door and sash may be put in on the outside 
wall line
