WEST GLOUCESTER. 
William H. Dunbar, who recently 
located in West Gloucester, from the 
city proper, is having a fine resi- 
dence erected on his Essex avenue 
estate near the Congregational 
ehureh. The building will be mod- 
ern in every particular. The di- 
mensions of the foundation are 23 
by 30 feet. When completed the 
house will contain seven rooms and 
a bath. Besides furnace heat a cozy 
fireplace will be an added charm to 
the interior arrangements. Spacious 
piazzas will give the exterior an at- 
tractive appearance. As the house 
will set well back from the street, 
and the background is very sightly, 
it will be a decided addition to West 
Gloucester. Walter P. Day, con- 
tractor, of Gloucester, is the builder. 
We are glad to see that a steady 
and persistent development of West 
Gloucester is taking place. As we 
_ look back five years in retrospection 
We are surprised when we realize 
the changes that have been wrought 
in such a short time. Many import- 
ant transfers of real estate have 
been made and many new buildings 
have been erected. West Gloucester 
is beginning to take on much of the 
same appearance that other north 
shore resorts present during the 
summer months. In the vicinity of 
Wingaersheek beach many hundreds 
of acres have gone into the posses- 
sion of the wealthy, who have de- 
veloped what was considered barren 
land into very attractive and valu- 
able estates. As the development of 
this beautiful region has only begun, 
the future of West Gloucester is 
very bright.
