| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | The United contractors Corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of New Jersey on April 7th, 1900, for the purpose of carrying on the general business of constructing buildings. Among its first stockholders it numbered many of the leading individuals and firms identified with the building trade from Massachusetts to Wisconsin and from Michigan to Kentucky. Starting with an authorized capital of only $125,000, on the ninth anniversary of its incorporation it had resources of over two millions and a half. While it has erected buildings in many parts of the country, it has also carried on a successful business at home. Among some of the more important nearby buildings erected by it may be mentioned the Scottish Rite Temple, on Park Street near Communipaw Avenue; the concrete factory building of Spindler & Deringer, corner Colgate and Mercer Streets; the rebuilding of the Keith & Proctor Theatre of Jersey City ; the Fairbanks Apartments in Orange; the rectory of the Church of the Holy Family at Union Hill; the Chapter House of the Delta Tau Delta Society of Hoboken, and the large apartment buildings on the corner of Bloomfield and Thirteenth Streets, Hoboken, erected for the Hoboken Land & Improvement Company. The financial office of the corporation is located on the second floor of the Commercial Trust Building, at 15 Exchange Place, Jersey City, where it has been located almost since the building was erected. Its officers and directors are: Winfield E. Hinsdale, president; Hugh H. Janeway, vice-president; Lawrence R. Kerr, treasurer ; George J. Kirstein, secretary. Directors: Frank D. Ames, John D. Carlile, H. D. Crane, W. E. Hinsdale, Lawrence R. Kerr, Geo. J. Kirstein, H. N. Leighton, Charles L. Pitts, S. Frank Bennett, J. P. Coghlin, L. Dautel, H. H. Janeway, Chas. F. Kindt, Leonard R. Kerr, John S. Menagh, Charles Reif, Jr. and Alfred Struck. |
