Cashboy;
Great picture of Maryhill.

The building was started in 1914. Sam was completely sold on the future of the automobile and built the building accordingly. The two round structures on either end are approaches for horseless carriages. It was expected that visitors - Sam was great with smoozing - would actually drive into the house. Once the people got out, the car could then continue on right through the other end of the house. .........The house is especially interesting to me as a concrete structure. Built out of concrete and steel support structures! He never lived there and his wife was never there! His daughter - was there once.
