A Review of the Winter’s 
Activities — New Houses 
at Manchester, etc. 
M®:: GEORGE PUTNAM, whose estate on Smith’s 
Point, at Manchester, was purchased by George R. 
White, to permit the extensive improvements now under 
way on his place, is to have a new house facing Singing 
Beach, where she has become the owner of a part of the 
Russell Sturgis property. Putnam & Allen, the Boston 
architects, have prepared plans for Mrs. Putnam, which 
soon will be started. She is to have a large house of En- 
glish charcter in its architecture, with wings at an angle 
from the main portion and with pitched roof showing 
quaint dormer windows. The exterior finish will be of 
stucco. ‘The house is planned to provide the usual rooms 
found in modern houses, with a spacious hall and stair- 
way, large living and dining-rooms, library and an ade- 
quate service department. There will be excellent bed- 
room suites and other rooms on the upper floors. A wide 
glazed piazza will afford fine views across a terrace, which 
is to be an outside feature, overlooking the sea.. The house 
will be a notable addition to the group in the Singing 
Beach section of Manchester. 
FO® Mrs. Charles A. Munn of Washington, D. C., a 
sun room from plans original with her has been con- 
structed by H. A. Doane of Pride’s. It contains a deep 
fire-place and all windows slide down into pockets. The 
house is located on Beach street, Manchester.

of May 24, 1913. 
4 Pee have been some interesting changes in the 
estate, at Norton’s Neck at Wast Manchester, of 
William A. Tucker, who calls his place ““The Moorings.” 
It commands a fine outlook of picturesque inland shore 
and the town harbor. A formal garden, which will be an 
attractive feature, has been made from plans by James 
T’. Kelly and Harold S. Graves of Boston. There is a 
central basin of concrete with a fountain and a long 
pergola having concrete columns is a conspicuous part of 
the improvements. It is semi-circular in form. There are 
trellises and garden seats and other furnishings for outdoor 
use. The garden has been made upon reclaimed land. 
PHILIP H. CHURCHMAN of Worcester has had 
erected a cottage on Proctor street, in Manchester, 
overlooking the harbor. The house is of simple Colonial 
type with gambrel roof, dormer windows, big chimneys 
and a very simple porch at the front entrance, where an 
arched portico with plain columns is the only ornamental 
exterior feature. ‘The house is shingled all over. Covered 
piazzas which project from two corners of the house 
are connected on one side by a grass terrace with flower 
beds. ‘The entrance is at one corner where is a square 
hall with the stairs placed in an alcove. The living-rooms 
are of good size and each is provided with a fireplace. 
Pilasters add their value to the dining-room. The kitchen
