The $1,500,000 Nix Professional Building opens with great fanfare. The Gothic 23-story building, "the first of its kind in the world," features a basement with a cafeteria, tailor shop and barbershop; eight floors of car storage space, ten floors of office space and a 200-bed hospital on the top six floors. There is also a private bathroom, a radio receiving set and a telephone in every room.
