1970s

During the ’70s the client base doubled with the addition of new clients and continued loyalty from existing clients.  January 1, 1973, the firm moved into the 2020 Riverside Drive building, which was one of Somerville’s own real estate developments.  Twenty-two days later, US President Richard Nixon announced “peace with honour” in Vietnam.  This decade also saw the introduction of a very noisy computer console in Somerville’s office which had a room of its own.
