One of my favorite homes in the city by Malcomson & Higginbotham. The home's original owner is William A. Pungs, founder of Pung's-Finch Auto and Gas Engine Company. In 1906 the company introduced a limited roadster with an engine using a Hemispherical Combustion Chamber 45 years before Chysler supposedly "invented" the Hemi. If you are interested there are very good images of the only Limited in existance on the net just use a good search engine.
