Scope and content
Exterior of "Skyliner" new home. The Arizona sandstone and wood two-story home was designed and built by the Miller Construction Co. and opened its doors to the public for viewing on June 6-7, 1953. The residence, located just inside Skyline Terrace, was designed specifically to provide maximum view of the Narrows and the Narrows Bridge from all living areas. Edward Miller, owner of Miller Construction, indicated that he was combining all the best ideas of building construction in this area. Many amenities would be included such as automatic garage door opener, an intercom system, three bathrooms with ventilator fans, cedar-lined wardrobes and a multitude of built-ins--TV's, radios, electric range & grill, and even toothbrush holders.
