The Lake Shore hotel has had many extensive alterations and additions made or in the process of construction. It will be a modern build- ing when finished. Morris Kaplan continues to exhibit his faith in Bemidji by starting another business block next to his three-story apartment block. The new block will be two stories, 50 fect by 140 feet. The Doran block is almost completed and has made a fine improvement to Minnesota avenue. Third street will searcely be recognized by Bemidji citizens in a few days. Earle Barker is constructing a two-story brick block 25 feet by 100 feet west of his store. New brick fronts are being put in by Abercrombie & Mc- Cready, Larson & Larson, who are also entirely remodeling the interior of their building. When these fronts are completed there will be a uniform brick front for 100 feet on Third street. The Third Strcet cafe building has a similar front, so that when the building, at present occupied by the Consumers Shoe company, is rebuilt, if the same style of front is used, there will be 150 feet of this uniform front. A modern oil distributing service sta- tion is to be installed at Fourth street and Beltrami avenue as soon as the equipment arrives. Matson & Ritchie Lumber company is erecting a modern warehouse at the foot of Second street and the M. & I. railway ‘racks, and have built a new set of lumber storage and office buildings at the corner of Third street and Irvine avenue. Small business buildings have been built on Beltrami avenue between Fifth and Sixth streets by Julius Miller and A. T. Wheelock. new garage for service purposes is being built at the end of the pave- ment in Nymore by E. E. Kenfield and will be used in connection with the Oldsmobile agency. * Henry Brakke has erccted a store building on Doud avenue south of the Taber grocery store. Plans are now out for the new $300,000 high school, which will be started this summer. The bath house at Dizamond Point will be completed about July 1, and will accommodate more than 100 bathers. The new $75,000 Birchmont hotel will be completed in a few weeks and wili be one of the finest summer hotels in the Lakes Region. Cottages are being built at Lavinia and other nearby summer resorts. A substantial addition has also been built at the Baptist church in Be- midji and plans are being prepared for a new Odd Fellows’ hall and Salva- tion Army building. The Bemidji Concrete Manufacturing Co. whose $20,000 plant has been erected in Nymore south of the Great Northern and Soo Line tracks are now ready for manufacturing. cement brick, tile and culverts and with this plant in Bemidji further brick construction will undoubtedly be en- couraged. 1t A number of other buildings,were built in the city. early in the season and are not included in this summary. here may also be other residences that have been missed by The Pioneer representative, but the list as enumer- ated is ample proof of the truth of Bemidji's claim to have more construc- tion going on than any other city in this section of the country. And when these buildings are all built there will still be need of more, from informa- tion gathered. Opinions expressed to The Pioneer representative are to the effect that there is demand without precedent for both homes and office and store buildings.
