Jan. 26, 1917. 
The Eastern Point cottage of David S. Greenough 
of Jamaica Plain, damaged extensively by fire last Oct- 
ober, will be rebuilt into a splendid house. The plans 
have been drawn by the house of H. M. Hanson of 
Gloucester. Hot water heat will be installed and _ the 
house will be ready for the next season. 
“Overlook” cottage, the former W. Jay Little prop- 
erty, occupied and purchased last season by Mr. and Mrs 
Philip M. Tucker of Brookline, will be remodeled into a 
large and attractive estate, with an additional expenditure 
of about $10,000. The architect is H. M. Hanson of 
Gloucester. 
CHAIN OF STORES NEAR CASINO 
An important building operation in the Eastern Point 
colony, will be the erection of a chain of stores in the 
Willows near Hawthorne Inn casino, for George O. Stacy, 
proprietor of the Inn. The former row of stores and 
lodgings building is being prepared for removal to a lot 
in the field, across the road. This field Mr. Stacy pur- 
chased three years ago and he contemplates having an 
English cottage settlement there. Already two cottages 
have been erected and occupied during the past season 
and a third cottage is now being completed. The stores 
and lodgings building will also be added to this number, 
the latter to be used for a domitory or annex to the Haw- 
thorne Inn. 
At Bass Rocks a number of fine cottages is to be 
erected for next season’s occupancy by the owners. A 
beautiful height at the edge of the goft links, Brier and 
Tudor roads, so-called, near Souther road, has been 
chosen for development. A large Dutch colonial cottage, 
to cost in the vicinity of $12,000, is now well along, the 
contractor being Benjamin C. Clark of Gloucester. The 
house is the property of Ralph L. Pope, the leather mer- 
chant, of Boston. Mr. Pope is a popular member of the 
Bass Rock’s golf club and with his young wife they have 
spent a few seasons at Bass Rocks and have entertained 
much. Their new house is being built along lines for 
extensive entertaining as well as for comfort, there being 
spacious drawing rooms and especially large veranda 
space. The veranda will be 103 feet long with average 
10 feet in width, the space of beautiful tile flooring te 
cover 1000 square feet, embodying the dining logia. The 
architect is H. M. Hanson of “Gloucester. From the ap-

proach drive there will be fascinating brick stoops, with 
a sort of double hall, outer and inner halls, leading into 
a living room 16 by 30 feet, finished in ted gum and 
panel. There will be ten good sized rooms with servants’ 
equipments, sleeping porches, baths, and a large room on 
the third floor, 31 feet long and 21 feet in width. ‘The 
house will have the unusual Germantown hood with a 
huge chimney at one side. The wood exterior will be 
white with Concord green shutters. The heating will be 
hot water. The contract will be completed by May 1. 
A garage is adjacent to the house. 
DutcH CoLoNtAL ARCHITECTURE. AT BAss Rocks 
Another attractive house of Dutch colonial design 
is being erected on a site adjoining the Pope estate for 
Mrs. Alvin C. Carl of Brookline. This summer residence 
will be practically the same size as the Pope structure. 
H. M. Hanson drew the plans and B. C. Clark is the 
builder. In the same locality, occupying the entire cor- 
ner lot 150 feet by 140 feet, a fine house is being erected 
for Francis A. Brewer of Brookline. ‘Mr. Brewer and 
family have spent former seasons at Pigeon Cove, where 
they had an estate, but Bass Rocks has proved an even 
greater attraction. The new comer to the colony is a 
nephew of D. Chauncy Brewer, the well known Boston 
attorney, who for so many seasons has owned his sum- 
mer estate, ‘““Tanglemoor,” at Bass Rocks. The architect 
for the new Brewer cottage is S. D. Hayden of Boston. 
The building contractor is Edward Bailey of Rockport, 
who built the Rockport public library. The structure will be 
50 feet square with an ell 33 by 16.6 feet. It will contain 
12 rooms besides butler’s pantries, laundry, shower baths, 
sleeping porches, three bath rooms, a piazza nearly around 
the house, and sun parlors. The exterior will be of 
shingles. The house will be furnished with heat, besides 
the open fireplaces, as Mr. Brewer and his family will 
make the house practically their permanent home. <A 
garage built already will accommodate two cars.
