DUNBAR QUIET
ON PLANSFOR
NEW PROPERTY
Attorney Jesse '1‘. Dunbar. who
recently purchased the Samuel J.
Kantor home on 65 Cross street. ad-
joining the Royal James inn, would
make no statement yesterday regard-
ing his intentions for that property.
Mr. Dunbar declined to comment
upon any negotiations with the Mag-
giore Realty company of Stamford.
which has purchased property in the
roar of the Royal James, owned by
it.
The Stamford concern has bought
adjoining land. but will not give any
information as to its plans. It is be-
lieved that tentative arrangements
propose turning the hotel toward
Cross street. and the erection of a
business block on the present site. A
report recently circulated that
the property of H. Block had been
sold' to the Maggiore compan. was
declared to be unfounded this morn-
ing. An option was given Mr. Block
on his property, but the proposition
was dropped.
