WILL AWARD CONTRACT SOON FOR FINE HOME Plans have been prepared by Architect H. H. Gillingham, 1502 Tower control 1S5 feet frontage, or about half of the block between Abbott and Cambie streets. The price paid for the Harvey store and premises is stated to be 3140,000, which is conceded to be a pretty fair bargain for such desirable Hastings street realty. As the lease of the present Harvey premises runs until next January, the prevously arranged bujlding programme of the Woodward firm has been considerably altered. "It was .originally intended to have commenced the erection of a six or eight story, building uniform with the present department store at the corner of> Abbott and Hastings street, some time this summer. The building programme called for an expenditure of about $400,000 on the construction of this new building. But with the acquisition of the additional frontage comprised in the Harvey store, the necessity for a complete revision of the original plans, combined with the present high prices of building materials, combined with the uncertainty that exists in the labor market, the firm has decided to defer the start on its building programme until next spring. It was stated to The Record by a member of the Woodward firm that it is planned to start early in the spring of-1921 on the demolition of the'building now occuping the. Hastingt street frontage from the department, store to the westerly limit of the Harvey store. Meanwhile plans are to be prepared for a six or eight story building that will occupy that entire frontage and will probably close to $1,000,- 000.

MARINE TO BUILD NEW VESSEL FOR H. B. CO. At a figure that is said to approximate $300,000, the-B. C. Marine, Ltd., has been awarded the contract for the construction of the new auxiliary schooner intended as an Arctic trad ing vessel, for the Hudson's Bay Company. The award of the contract was made by Capt. J. Fitzgerald, marine superintendent of the Hudson's Bay Company, after a careful inspection and investigation of the equipment and facilities of various local yards, with a view'to ascertaining what firm was best situated to turn out the vessel as quickly as possible: The new schooner which is to be very staunchly built and will have a special sheathing of selected oak as well as steeF armor on the bow to enable her to withstand ice pressure and cut her way through floating ice, is to be 200 feet in length with a beam of 36 feet and a depth of 12 feet. She will carry about 1,200 tons as well as oil fuel for a large cruising raditis. Speed in construction*- is desired as it is planned to have the vessel launched in August and taken north around through Behring Sea to the mouth of the Mackenzie River, on which stream she is to be used for trading purposes. Manager James Innes Hopkins of the B. C. Marine announces that an early start is to be made on the con- t'o''■' be ' erected" , oh Shaughnessy Heights for Mr. J. Dun- das. ...The dwelling is' to contain .all modern improvements'-including hardwood floors and hot air heating.
