NAT'L 5904 BUSINESS ROMANCE HIDDEN IN BULDING {Meteoric Rises to Fame and Wealth Are Represented -in Big Operations. Back of the large-scale business of apartment house construction in the National Capital lies & romance of the | meteoric rise to prominence and wealtn of the bullders. - Fortunes have been made from the construction and operation of apart- ment houses in Washington, for which more than $131,000,000 has been ex- pended for construction work alone during the past 20 years. Men with lit- tle else besides ability to plan and build have attalned success in this field. though others with wealth or strong fi- nancial backing also are found in the list of outstanding operators. Ability to obtain financial support, whether the builder be wealthy or poot, personally, however, has been a test for the reason that virtually no large apart- ment operations are built from the builder's personal capital, but rather are financed through the floatation of boné¢ issues. Wardman Held Niche. Harry Wardman, during the past 20 years, has been the outstanding figure in the apartment house construction in- dustry of Washington. Because of the long list of structures he has erected and the extent of his holdings acquired as investments. his name for a period of vears overshadowed all others. He has built more than 400 apart- ment houses in addition to more than 5,000 dwellings and office buildings, hotels and other business propertics. Among the more important apart- ment projects are the huge Cathedral Mansions group on Connecticut avenue: the Clifton Terrace group of buildin the Brighton and Dresden Apartments: the Chastleton: 2700 Connecticut ave- nue; a group on Chlvert street north of Connecticut avenue; a group of large apartments at Connecticut avenue and | Davenport street; the La Salle, Con- necticut avenue and L street. and the Hay Adams House. The full list, of course, is much longer and does not include the Wardman Park Hotel,| Roosevelt Hotel nor the Carlton Hotel. ‘Wardman, while having the most un- usual career, is not the only large- scale builder of apartments. Warren Brothers Prominent. Monroe and R. Bates Warren, lead- ing operators in the co-operative apart- ment fleld here, have done much to fur- | ther the private development of Wash- ington by the construction of apart- ment buildings. Their largest operation, now completed, is the $3.000,000 Tilden lSedgM(‘k streets. Earlier they con- structed the Crescent Place Co-operative Apartments, to the west of Meridian Hill_Park, and the Army and Navy Apartments, 2540 Massachusetts avenue. Harry M. Bralove in recent years also | has taken a leading place in ment house construction, _developing | some of the largest single structures in | this fleld of construction. These in- clude the huge Broadmoor Apartments, | 3601 Connecticut avenue; the large and exclusive structure known as 2101 Con- | necticut _avenue: the New Shoreham | Apartment Hotel, a development of two bulldings on the south side of Calvert street between Woodley road and Twenty-eighth street. a large bullding at 4707 Connecticul avenue, and a number of smaller structures, Mount Pleasant Section.
