Description
Will Build Three New Houses. - - Uncle James M. Powell, who has lately purchased the old Baldwin property on Second and Zed Martin Streets in Platte City, has informed us that he will build three new houses thereon. Two of these will be of brick and one of frame.
This will be a much-needed improvement, as scarcely a day passes that someone does not want to rent a dwelling house.
The colored shanties on the block south of Mr. Powell's property should be torn away and replaced with neat residences for white people.Date(s) of Creation
