Announcement: Architect Woltz
Posted: BridgetBrown @ Wed Aug 03, 2005 11:10 pm
This was sent to me by the owner of the Tipahato House.

Waynesboro Record, Wednesday Aug. 22, 1902

HELPED BEAUTIFY MOUNTAIN
Architect Woltz has been Active Force
(illegible sub-heading)

Architect J.W. Woltz has moved his office from his residence, East Second Street, to the Bank Building on the public square and now occupies room 7 on the second floor. He obtains more office room in his new quarters and is centrally located.

Mr. Woltz has just completed plans for a new cottage for Miss Katharine Taylor, Baltimore, to be erected on the eminence to the east of Lake Royer and close to Dr. Roach’s residence.

The cottage will be of Swiss architectural effect. It will be built half of stone and half of wood and will be equipped with a hot air heating plant and other modern conveniences. Its cost will be $7000. Work on it will begin soon but it will not be ready of occupancy until next year.

Designed Eight Cottages

Mr. Woltz has designed eight of the handsomest cottages on the mountain. Some of them cost a goodly sum for their erection. The most expensive cost $12,000, another required the expenditure of $10,000, several $8000 and others lesser amounts.

Caldwell Hardy, Norfolk, Va., has just moved into a very attractive cottage completed from Architect Woltz’s designs. It cost $10,000 and is equipped with a heating plant, etc.

Mr. Woltz has been a factor in making Monterey and Blue Ridge Summit beautiful. He has given particular attention to the study of architecture which will be especially adapted to the pretty colony of summer residences on the mountain. Not only has he planned homes for summer occupancy but many are so built and equipped as to be fitted for residence places all the year around.

It will be gratifying to Waynesboro, of course, which always takes pride in its citizens’ attainments to know that Mr. Woltz has been such a marked factor in making the mountain a place beautiful and one which commands the admiration of all who visit it and its homes.
