The Growth of Springfield.
Fram the Springfield Daily Union, of July 9, 1874.
A BUSY SEASON IN SPITE OF DULL TIMES .- WHAT THE MASONS AND CARPENTERS ARE DOING .- THE CHURCHES, BUSINESS BLOCKS AND PRINCIPAL DWELLINGS NOW UNDER CONSTRUCTION .- A SURPRISINGLY GOOD RECORD FOR A GENERALLY DULL YEAR.
The cry of hard times has been so often repeated throughout the country that almost everybody has come to accept it as gospel. The UNION has more than once pointed out, however, that Springfield was favored far above most of her sister cities in general prosperity, nearly all her diversified branches of industry making at least as good a showing, this year, as last. The presentation which we give below of the large, steady and healthful growth of the city in new buildings, is proof positive of our statements, for nothing is more certain than that if our general prosperity were suffering, our growth would be checked. Indeed no class of workmen feel dull times quicker than masons and carpenters, and the fact that so many of them are employed at good wages in our city, this season, is a sign of the times worth noting; especially as the record of their work, begun or contemplated this season, is so creditable and so much larger than most of our citizens have any idea of. It includes two fine churches nearly finished ; another elegant one soon to be erected ; a large and fully average number of business blocks; and several first-class dwellings. Of the less costly houses, not quite so many as usual have thus far been constructed, but with the number in contemplation, it seems likely that the end of the season will witness, in this respect also, fully the or- dinary growth.
The new South Church, in process of construction at the corner of Maple and High streets, by Norcross Brothers of Worcester, at a cost of $100,000, is being finished as rapidly as the nature of the work will allow, and its general appearance will exceed the expectations of the most sanguine persons interested in its construction. The plaster- ers are nearly through their work in the audience room, and the chapel has been in use for some time. The rich stone carving, by Kitson & Ellin of New York, are so marked as to elicit general admiration, and all the work is being well and thoroughly done. The tracery in the rose windows, manufactured of artificial stone by D. J. Curtis, is now being placed in position, and is a good specimen of the excellent work which Mr. Cur- tis is doing in the various parts of the city.
Grace Church, which the Central Methodists are erecting at the corner of Main and Winthrop streets, is about being covered. The roof timbers are nearly all up and are strong and substantial, and the lathers have the studding of the interior nearly ready for the plasterers. The cost of this building is estimated at about $40,000. John W. Rice is doing the brick and stone work, and is doing it well, as an inspection of the structure will show, and Peter Johnson is superintending the wood work. The main building is 70 by 120 feet, and the audience room, which is to have a gallery, will seat about 1000 persons comfortably. The lower floor is very conveniently arranged and
411

contains, beside the general Sunday-school room, two commodious class rooms, a kitchen and a library, all well lighted and commodious.
The Episcopalians, who have been agitating the subject of a new church edifice for several years, have decided to build, this season, after plans offered by Lord & Fuller and H. G. Wadlin of Boston, and at a recent meeting decided to place the structure on the Bliss lot on Chestnut street. This lot has a front of 150 feet and a depth of from 273 to 280 feet. It is intended to leave a space on the southerly end of the lot for a driveway ; the plans, which will be carried out very nearly as drawn by the architects, represent a beautiful building of Longmeadow freestone, with a turreted tower at the south-west corner, 146 feet in hight. The building will be 86 feet long on Chestnut street, a long vestibule, with a gable and rose window running to the north and ending in a porch at the north-west corner. The audience room is calculated to seat about 1000 persons, and has a beautiful clere-story, 12 feet high, supported by trusses of neatly finished Southern pine. The nave is 146 feet long, the transept 94 feet, and the chancel 35 feet. Proposals for building the edifice, which is estimated to cost $68,000, are now being received.
The First Baptist Society are still considering the project of building a chapel on Carew street, at a point which would bring the proposed building on the corner of Dwight street, should that thoroughfare be extended northward. The plans, for which proposals are now being offered, show a neat frame building, 80 by 40 feet, with a bell tower and spire, 80 feet high, and with an audience room capable of seating about 700 persons.
There are as many and perhaps more first-class business blocks going up this season, than usual, and all of them are as good as the average of their predecessors, in point of architecture, beauty and thoroughness of construction. Mr. John Olmstead has torn down the large wooden block on Main street, just north of Taylor street, owned by him, and occupied for a long time by the Bay State Paper Company, who are tempo- rarily occupying quarters in L. H. Taylor's adjoining block, and is putting up a durable and substantial building, the whole of which is already leased to the Bay State Company for a term of years. Amaziah Mayo las contracted to do the wood work, and Charles R. Whittemore looks after the masonry. The structure, the basement walls of which are already up, has a front of 36 feet on Main street, and is 65 feet deep. It will be five stories high above the basement, with a paved brick front and trimmings of Ohio stone, and its estimated cost is $30,000.
J. B. Warren is putting up a brick block on the southerly side of East Bridge street, three stories high, and with a front of 50 and a depth of 90 feet. It will cost, when completed, about $15,000, and will have a front of pressed brick and trimmings of granite. The main story is 14 feet high, the second 13 feet, and the third 12 feet. The westerly one of the three stores and the upper floors of the entire building will be occu- pied by Charles E. Maxfield, furniture dealer. McCauley & Bartlett are doing the brick work, and Jones & Bugbee tlie wood work, and the walls are nearly ready to receive the roof.
At the corner of Main and Hillman streets, John Madden's handsome four-story block is rapidly approaching completion. This building will be not only an ornament to the street, with its front of Philadelphia pressed brick, trimmings of iron and large plate glass windows, one of which is 14 by 8 1-2 feet, but is being constructed in a workman- like manner. Riley & Burke are doing the masonry, and C. L. Shaw the carpenter work, and the walls are now up to the third story, with the exception of the front. It has a frontage on Main street of 48 feet and a depth of 105 feet, giving two large and well-lighted stores on the main floor, for the rental of which negotiations are now in progress. The upper stories will probably be used for business, or perhaps light manu- facturing purposes. The walls are unusually heavy, and the detail of building is closely looked after. The block will cost about $30,000.
B. F. Farrar has put up on the northerly side of East Worthington street a plain brick block, with freestone trimmings, 50 by 60 feet and four stories high. There are two stores on the main floor, one of which, with the floors above it, will be occupied by
,
412
SPRINGFIELD CITY DIRECTORY.
J. A. Eldredge, furniture dealer, while Henry M. Burt will occupy a portion of the structure with his newspaper establishment. The wood work of the building was done by James M. Currier & Co., and the block cost about $12,000.
H. A. Pierce's four-story block is going up on State street, just east of and adjoining W. L. Wilcox's stove and tin warehouse. This building is 23 feet by 70, with one store on the main floor, and will have a front of pressed brick and trimmings of Mon- son granite; there will be three tenements in the upper stories, one on each floor, con- veniently arranged, and the store will be occupied by Mr. Pierce in the fruit business. The estimated cost of the building is $12,000, and the masonry is being done by Howe & Hawks, and the wood work by Joyce & Burnham.
The large block which Robinson, Marsh & Co. are putting up at the corner of Tay- lor and Dwight streets, is about ready for the roof. No building in the city is more substantially built than this, and it will be used entirely for light manufacturing pur- poses. It is 87 feet by 90, is well lighted, and has a boiler room in the rear, 65 by 14 feet. Rising to a hight of four stories, it is neatly trimmed with brown stone, and will cost, when completed, about $30,000. Royal Harrington attends to the brick work, and the carpentry is done under the supervision of C. S. Ferry, who has built some of Springfield's finest structures. One-half the building will be occupied by O. B. Doug- lass & Co., wood workers, and portions of the remaining half will be used by the Davis Level Company, now located at Chicopee Falls, and possibly by the United States Spring Bed Company.
Around on Hampden street the old Carlton house is being demolished to make room for a business block which William Patton proposes to build, this season, and which will be entirely occupied by Cutler, McIntosh & Co., wholesale dealers in boots and shoes. It will be 60 feet on the front, and 62 feet deep, and three stories high, with trimmings of granite and freestone. D. J. Curtis will do the brick and stone work, and Moody & Black the wood work, and the building will cost $16,000.
Not the least noticeable among the prominent buildings is Frost & Lewis' handsome livery and sale stable, three stories high, just finislied on Market street. This building is 34 feet by 80, and has a front of pressed brick with trimmings of Ohio sandstone, a neat figure of a horse being artistically cut in the cap-stone over the main entrance. On the main floor is an elegant little room, richly carpeted and furnished, where ladies can wait until their teams are ready, and stepping into their vehicles in the building, drive through the main entrance to the street. Directly opposite is the principal office, and in the rear is the carriage room, a large apartment expressly fitted up for the stor- age and washing of light vehicles. On the second floor are 32 stalls for the horses, to which the animals ascend by a winding roadway like a flight of stairs. The third and upper floor is used for storing grain and hay, and 50 feet of hose attached to a water pipe are at hand for immediate use in case of fire. There are harness, blanket, whip and robe rooms in convenient places about the building, which is without doubt the finest structure of the kind in this part of the State. The carpenter work was done by D. A. Davis, a good workman of large experience, and D. J. Curtis did the mason work. The building cost about $12,000.
The Wason Car Company intend to tear down a portion of their old shop on Lyman street, in the Fall, and build, just east of the block occupied by the Powers Paper Company, a building precisely like the latter in size, finish, and appearance. A large portion, if not all of it, will probably be occupied by the Powers Company.
The Hampden Park Association are discussing plans for an extensive addition to the grand stand on the park, by building another story upon that structure, with ninety-two private boxes, capable of accommodating six persons each.
The number of superior dwelling-houses, in various stages of completion, is quite large. On the southerly side of Central street, which avenue, by the way, is being greatly improved, B. F. Farrar is erecting a block of eight double houses, 196 feet long, extending easterly from the fine block he recently finished, and to be of the same ex- ternal appearance, the front being constructed of pressed brick, with Ohio stone trim- mings. Each house will be finished with all the modern conveniences, and two
413
SPRINGFIELD CITY DIRECTORY.
verandahs will extend along the rear of the entire building, the cost of which will be about $40,000. Mr. Farrar does the mason work himself, James M. Currier & Co. the wood work, Horatio Powell the painting, and Handyside & Jarrett the plumbing.
Henry Alexander, Jr., has moved his dwelling from the corner of State and Elliott streets to the easterly side of his lot, with the exception of the two wings, which have been placed near the barn in the rear, and will be fitted up into a dwelling for his hired man. A large and commodious ell has been constructed in the rear of the main build- ing, and will be fitted up into a dining-room, kitchen, china closet, ice chest, etc. The work is being done in a superior manner by W. D. Keyes, Marcus Houghton doing the mason work, and T. M. Walker & Co. the painting. The whole cost of the improve- ments will be about $10,000.
R. C. Searle is completing on Carew street, near Main, a block of three houses, the structure being 75 by 40 feet and two stories high, with a basement and Frenchi roof. Each house contains large and airy rooms, has bay windows in front, and will be furnished with the modern conveniences. Mr. Searle has done the carpenter work, has hired his own painters, and Benjamin Spear has done the mason work, the front being pressed brick, with trimmings of Ohio stone. The cost of the building is estimated at $18,000.
E. C. Bailey, the architect, has prepared plans for a block of houses to be erected by C. C. Burnett on the west end of his Court street lot, and the structure, already fully described in the Union, will be exceeding neatly and tasteful. It will contain three dwellings in flats.
The plan for a new two-story school-house at Brightwood will soon be finished, and builders will then have an opportunity to send in their proposals for its erection. It will be constructed of brick, at an estimated cost of $15,000.
Marvin Chapin's elegant residence on Mattoon street, now under construction by J. M. Currier & Co., at a cost of $25,000, is nearly completed, so far as its exterior is con - cerned, and the workmen are putting on the backing for the tower roofs. Work upon the interior, which is to be rich in design and with a sumptuous finish in native woods, will be begun in a few days.
Mr. A. S. Bryant is building on Maple street, near Mulberry, a handsome dwelling- house which will soon receive its roof. It will be two stories high, with basement and French roof, and its trimmings are of Ohio stone. Mr. Chauncey Shepard is the designer and builder. C. R. Whittemore is doing the brick and stone work. It will cost when finished $20,000.
The county commissioners are expected soon to award the contract for improvements at the jail and house of correction, according to plans recently furnished by George E. Potter. The present kitchen, boiler room and bakery are to be torn away, and a new building constructed for similar purposes, inclosing a yard which has long been needed, about 100 feet long by 28 wide. The building proposed will contain a kitchen 33 by 32 feet, with set kettles, pantries, etc., a bakery 23 by 10 feet, boiler room 30 by 23 feet, and a room for storing straw 23 by 8 feet. It will be very neat in external and internal appearance. Its cost has not yet been estimated.
The $25,000 residence at the corner of Chestnut and Mattoon streets, erected for Dr. T. F. Breck by Norcross Brothers of Worcester and D. J. Curtis of this city, is receiv- ing its interior finish, the upper portion being of the English baronial style, and the lower decidedly French.
Josiah Perkins is engaged upon designs for a brick block of five tenement houses, which Daniel McCauley proposes to build on Bond street.

AMERICAN
INSTITUTE
WARDED
TO
BYRON WESTON
FOR THE BEST Einen Ledger Paper
1870.
NEW-YORK,
The BYRON WESTON Ledger and Record Paper, made at Dalton, Mass., has received THE HIGHEST PREMIUM over all others from the AMERICAN INSTITUTE, NEW YORK, the CINCINNATI INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION; and the MASSA- CHUSETTS ASSOCIATION. Its principal advantages are as follows :
I. It contains more LINEN than any other Ledger Paper, has a LONGER FIBER, and is consequently, TOUGHER.
2. Having a harder and better body, it FRAYS LESS IN ERASURE, so that by simply using the rubber after the eraser, the ink is prevented from spreading.
3. It is more uniform in Weight, Color and Finish.
4. It never cockles in Binding, nor crocks in Print- ing.
5. Its chemical action upon Ink is such, that it both WRITES and RULES BETTER.
For proof of the above, reference can be given to a large number of Banks, Railroad and Insurance Companies, County Officials and Book-keepers generally, who have given it, after a severe test, the PREFERENCE OVER ALL OTHERS.
