How essential it is, then, to have home and its at- mosphere in a permanent setting—where today you can foretell the surroundings that will envelop your boy and girl when they have at- tained maturity. It was this idea that inspired the creators of Rock Creek Park Estates—to offer within the District of Columbia a city homesite that also incorporated the advan- tages of country life. A home built within these 100 acres, which are truly a part of Rock Creek Park, has the advantage of a great nat- ural background, permanently preserved by superimposed restrictions. These restrictions also serve as an insurance for congenial neigh- bors and other artistic homes that will blend harmoniously with yours and the natural set- ting. “Home Sweet Home” in Rock Creek Park Estates is a cornerstone for character and home harmony, You Enter the Estate at 16k St. and Kalmia Roed Telephone Main 5700 for an Inspection Appointmens EDSON W.
