It Is doubtful If there 1b one other olty
In the United States that can boast of bo
beautiful and unique a residence feature
an Is found almost In the very heart of
Omaha In tho property of It. C Strehlow,
known as tho Btrehlow Terrace apart
ments. Three largo apartment houses, the "Ma
jestic" the "Btrehlow" and tho "Ro
land," 'together with the private, spacious
grounds, comprise this attractive spot,
whero nearly ono hundred families make
their residence.
Located on Sherman avenue, between
Draco and Burdette streets, and extending
west to eighteenth street, the site affords
Its dwellers nearly two squire blocks of
private enclosure. Aside from the archi
tectural beauty anJ the thoroughly mod
ern appointments of the structures, the
many attractive features of tho exterior
surroundings have caused thousands of
passersby tq, stop and marvel at the
place. The first Impression of the stran
ger Is that the grounds are some public
park of beautiful adornment. The vast
expanse of exquisite lawn, the numerous
beds of flowers and shrubbery, the Im
mense shade trees, pergolas, fountains,
tennis courts, children's swings, etc,
serve to convey this thought ' These
grounds are private, however, reserved
for the exclusive use of the tenants of
the apartments.
And what an Inspiring scene It Is when
of a summer evening the population of
this little haven turns out for Its after
dinner frolic Prettily dressed young
women, for they are mostly young1 mar
ried people who live here, promenading
the walks or comfortably reclining in the
pergolas or swings; the happy children at
play; Ufa men. In a riot of sport, enjoy
ing the well kept tennis courts, and who,
by the way, have a tennis organization
all their own, named the "Strehlow Ten
nis club.;" others nursing their little gar
den plots, which are provided for the
asking, and so on and on, until one mar
vels at the foresight of the man who con
ceived the idea of furnishing more than
Just living quarters of the usual apart
ment house. For, aside from the ample
revenue which he receives, there, must be
wonderful satisfaction to htm as he min
gles among his large "family" and views
the genuine enjoyment which his property
affords them. His own beautiful resi
dence, conforming to the general archi
tecture of the apartments, is located on
the southwest corner of the grounds, and
thus the Strehlow family Is a part of the
whole.
And when darkness has descended upon
the place, immediately huge aro light
and tall pillar lamps, enclosed In orna
mental' green shades, are switched on,
and, togethor with the myriads of lights
from the windows of the apartments,
give an entrancing aspect to the place
even at night.
The Interiors of the buildings are prao
tlcally perfect in their equipment and
finish. Everything that a thoroughly up-to-date
apartment house contains Is
found in the three, four, five and six
room apartments of the Strehlow, Jla
Jectio and the Roland, which latter, by
the way. Is said to be the most attractive
apartment house In the west.
A large garage for the convenience of
those tenants who own automobiles Is
provided upon the grounds. Also a little
olub house for the tennis men is fitted
out with all the necessary equipment.
Nothing seems to be omitted that -woufd
add to the pleasure and convenience of
the tenants. All this represents an In
vestment of a fortune, but how well this
money Is spent is testified to by the
corresponding large Income in rentals
each month. And at that, the rates are
decidedly reasonable.
A splendid spirit of comradeship exists
among the 800 or more people who live
here. Newcomers are at once taken Into
the circle and every effort is put forth
to mke them feel at ease In their new.
surroundings.
In short, the people who make their
homes in the Strehlow Terrace apart
ments, are a large-hearted class of repre
sentative Omaha cltlsens, who know how
to live in pleasantness with each other
and enjoy beautiful surrounding with
snobbishness eliminated.
