That Norwulk offers great. oppor-l
tunitles to builders and far greater
opportunities to families to acquire
titdern homes at reasonable cost is
the continued belief of Andrew C.

ieeldence. are assuming extensive
proportions. Mr. Lundeten has
lacked his optimism concerning
Ncrwalk's future by constructing sis
homes here. and procuring permits
this past week to build twelve more
at once.
“Norwslk'e advantages for home
ownership are unsurpassed.’ Mr.
Lundsten told the Evening Sentinel
vrhon discussing his activities here.
and how' he happened to locate in
Norwalk. "it is possible that Nor-
nalk residents may not realize all
tlia’ they have to be proud of. but I
assure you that residents of West-
cnester county. and even as far as
b‘taten Island. are enthusiastic about
what is has to offer. and the result
is that Norwalk is destined to have
a number of new families in its
midst.”
Mr. Lundsten has completed a
iii-w home for himself on Highland
avenue. and another on the same
street for his parents. Mr. and Mrs.
John Lundsten. who have moved
Staten ls-
ai.d. He has contracts to build ed-
dl.ionai homes for others living
there and in Westehestcr County.
