IMPROVEMENTS .
ARE PLANNED IN
BURNED DISTRICT
Estimated $lOO,OOO Will Be
Spent In Rebuilding In
Warehouse Part of City.
A NEW FACTORY PLANNED
Said That R. M. Hughes & Co.
of Louisville Will Build a
Vinegar Plant.
One hundred thousand dollars is
a conservative estimate of the
value of buildings which have been
planned hnd are contemplated for
San Antonio's warehouse district
on South Medina street, which was
recently swept by fire. All the
buildings, which are to take the
place of the old wooden structures
which were destroyed, are to be of
brick and concrete and are to be
modern in every way, and actual
work of construction on a number
of them is to he under way by
Oct. 20. Plans in many instances
have been drawn and accepted and
contracts for the work of erecting
the buildings are to be let short
ly.
Not only warehouses will be erected,
but factories are to be built. Two vine
gar factories have been one
to be erected by R. M. Hughes S Co.
of Louisville, Ky.. and Jhe other by
the Price-Booker Manufacturing com
pany of San Antonio.
The plant of the Hughes company is
to be located on a lot 365 feet long, ex
tending from Medina to Frio streets.
This factory will be buift of reinforced
concrete and is to be the largest of its
kind in Texas. San Antonio is regarded
as being the best vinegar market in the
southwest, from here shipments
being made to points in "lexico, Okla
homa and Arkansas. Mr. Hughes is ex
pected to arrive in San Antonio next
week to take up the work of having
plans prepared for his factory. The
Hughes company is recognized as one of
the largest vinegar manufacturing con
cerns in Kentucky. The cost of the im
provement is to be $5300.
All of these improvements have been
planned on the agreement made by the
city and the water company that a 12-
inch water main is to be laid on Medina
street, giving adequate water supply
to the district in case of fire. At the
time of the recent fire the water main
was so small that the supply of water
to stop the blaze un
|BMMFcks had been burned over,
"x is also expected to macada
mize Medina street.
The Price-Booker Manufacturing
company’s vinegar factory is to be
erected in the rear of their present
pickle factory, 621 San Luis street. The
material used will be brick and the cost
will be about $15,000. The business of
the Price-Booker company has grown
so large that it is necessary that it
have a vinegar factory of its own.
Two Large Warehouses.
Pruitt and Lamb, commission and
produce merchants, are to erect the
largest brick warehouse in San Antonio,
and Mr. Pruitt will also erect a large
warehouse and brick material is to be
used. Each warehouse will cost at least
$15,000. The Pruitt and Lamb buildings
will have dimensions of 112 feet on
Medina street and 150 feet on San Luis
street. It will have a basement through
out the length and width of the build
ing and in the southern end will be
installed an up-to-date and complete
refrigerating plant, this alone to cost
a snug sum of money.
The Pruitt warehouse will stand 125
feet on Medina street and 140 feet on
San Fernando street.
Plans for both buildings have been
prepared and work is to begin not later
than Oct. 20.
Pruitt and Lamb on a lot purchased
from Dalkowitz Bros, yesterday, front
ing 120 feet on South Frio street and
extending 165 feet to San Luis street,
will erect a large barn for the accom
modation of their stock and where will
be housed their many wagons used in
delivering produce. The barn will be
built of galvanized iron.
The price paid for the property is
being withheld, but Mr. Lamb admits
that it was twice the sum for which the
property was offered for sale a year ago.
Work on the barn is to begin within
the next ten days.
The John Deere Plow company is also
to erect a warehouse and has been
granted a permit from the city. The
location is on the south side of San
Luis street in the warehouse district.
