When History Records Names of Builders Of City, Meiselman Will Be High on List

“When history records the names of those who have helped build the City of Palm Springs, the name Jack Meiselman will be high on the list.

Meiselman has built homes and developments in this area, including such now famous communities as Desert Palms Estates, Luring Sands Park, Winterhaven, Deep Well and others. Latest to be announced by the Meiselman organization is the start of a new development to be known as Chino Palms Estates. Location is south and east of the Racquet Club.

Here will be constructed just 45 new luxury homes, bearing a price tag of only $19,900 to $21,500. Outstanding feature of these homes will be the fact that all have one of the two baths placed so that those coming from the patio or pool may enter it from the rear yard. This will be a “must” in desert home construction from now on, Meiselman pointed out.

Other desirable features are: Refrigerated cooling and forced air heating; built-in range and oven; automatic dishwasher; garbage disposal; completely fenced yard and play area; two car port; masonry fireplace; two sliding doors to pool area, from the living room and master bedroom.

Also, breakfast bar; formica counter tops; Sandalwood Youngstown kitchen cabinets; vinyl asbestos tile floors in kitchen and bathrooms; cement walks and patios; large storage areas. In and paid for will be curbs, gutters and paved streets.

A pool can be added for only an extra $l,OOO down, it was pointed out.

Six models are now under construction at Meiselman’s earlier Palm Lane development, located at Sunset Way and Andreas. These may be viewed as they progress, and orders are being taken both for Palm Lane, for 30-day move-in, or in Chino Palms, for those who can wait 90 days or more for occupancy.

Meiselman is entirely optimistic concerning the future of residential construction in the Palm Springs area. He believes that second homes will be as popular within the next few years as are second family cars today. Also that the shorter work week, which may lie just ahead, plus non-stop completed freeways lo Los Angeles and all major metropolitan areas, is bound to make this area the number one winter living section of the nation.”
