According to Russell C. Hirtle, Dan Hirtle had a house-building business with George Peterson. Together the were instrumental in the development of Forbes Hill. First they built the office for the real estate firm developing Forbes Hill; this was at the top of the hill. Then they started building houses for the people who bought lots on the hill. Among the people for whom they built houses were Arthur D. Little, the Remicks (owner of the department store and parents of Lee Remick), a mayor of Quincy, and a vice-president of Westinghouse.
For these houses, Hirtle and Peterson worked with an architect. For other houses, Hirtle designed the house himself. This was especially true of the houses he built on Granger Street. When Dan Hirtle built 130 Granger street, it and the house next door were the only houses on this portion of Granger (which was being extended from Harvard St. to Milton Street). In fact, the Civil War colonel (Johnson?) who owned the farmland even grazed cows directly behind 130 Granger when they first moved in. Dan Hirtle built the remaining houses on Granger Street and also the houses around the corner from Granger.
The houses Hirtle built were of high quality (witnessed by the fact that he was well-liked by the neighbors who lived in them) and relatively inexpensive. Unfortunately his business sense was not as good, and the partnership went broke during the Depression.

According to her marriage certificate, Annie Lowe was 23 years old when she
married. Her address was 41 Hamilton St., Quincy. Her occupation is given as
stenographer. Family legend has her emigrating when she was 4.Death Cert. Boston Mass Vital Statistics v91 p.242 Annie Margaret [Lowe] Hirtle
