The Early Years of Lakeside Park


Charles Teunon began laying out plots of land in the Lakeside Park area back in 1912. This real estate ad offers lots in that beautiful neighborhood at prices ranging from 100 to 500 dollars. One would assume that a lakefront property would command the princely price of $500. Back in the 1920's when this sale was on, a Ford could be had for $495. Tempus does indeed fugit!
