Dear Shareholders and Residents,

We are very pleased to share with you that the Master Apartments (Master Building) has been officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This designation comes just a few weeks before the 87th anniversary of the laying of the building’s cornerstone on March 24, 1929.  We know that you share our pride in The Master Apartments being added to this prestigious list of buildings of historical and architectural significance.  A plaque is in the process of being ordered to note this distinction, with an unveiling to be planned for later on in the spring.

With warm regards,

The Board of Directors
