Directory of Householders, Occupants of Office Buildings and Other Business Places, Including a Complete Street and Avenue Guide
1948-49
Copyright, 1948, by Hill Directory Co., Inc.
In the following list the named streets are arranged in alphabetical order, followed by the numbered streets in numerical order, the intersecting streets being shown. The number of each building on the street is given in numerical order, and opposite the number is placed the name of the occupants or houseowner or tenant. In the business blocks containing offices the occupants are shown by room numbers where practicable, in apartment homes the number denotes the number of the apartment. In all streets both sides of the street are included in one list. The profession or business of individuals or firms is given only at their respective place of business; to find occupation of others refer to Alphabetical List of Names.
The symbol @ following a householder's name indicates that we have received information during the canvass that the house is owned by some member of the family, but as the publisher cannot and does not guarantee the correctness of the information furnished, nor the complete absence of mistakes no responsibility for errors can be or is assumed, nor can the publisher furnish further information than that shown.
The 4 preceding 'names denotes houses and places of business having telephones. Figures in parenthesis denote old numbers.
(c) denotes colored.
(The numerals that appear at right edge of columns, ahead of street descriptions and some street inter- sections, are merely for the guidance of the publishers, and have no other significance.)
(This section includes some listings reading "No Return." In each case the Publishers tried diligently, by various means, to obtain the information for the occupants but were unsuccessful. First, two personal calls were made by an enumerator; next, a double postal card was mailed and the telephone used when possible.)
