We enjoyed receiving an email from an owner of a Banks & Lee Development house built in 1949. The owner of this house did some research and found this advertisement.

“We are extremely happy with the quality of the house, and I assure you the value has gone up from its original list price of $15,950!”

We love the old fashioned human curiosity and follow through of the new owner to contact us.

This is a wonderful piece of our/Banks history. We always treasure such correspondences. Banks & Lee created a successful contracting company which built schools, hotels, apartment complexes, office buildings, shopping centers, and houses throughout the Washington DC Metropolitan Area.
