Week's Realty Review

There is apparently no let-up in the demand for residential real estate and during April brokers who operate in the business district found a revival of interest in parcels in that district. Generally speaking the market has never been in better shape than at this time, and the speculative spirit, which was dominant less than a year ago, virtually has disappeared.

The feature of the last week ws (sic) the sale of the northwest corner of Fourth and Sycamore streets, bought by S. Freider & Son, cigar and tobacco jobbers, from the Wilmer Building Company through Newman Samuel and William V. Ebersole & Co., the price being $67,000. Another downtown sale was the business property, 311 and 313 West Sixth street, purchased by Louis and Albert Harris for approximately $26,000 the deal being handled by Nathan & Nathan.

William Reehl, real estate broker, bought the vacant lot, southwest corner of Fourth and Hammond streets, and plans to build a two-story and office building, thereby following in the steps of owners in other cities who find that a low building is a better revenue producer.

Dale G. Ebersole and E. E. Atkinson each acquired homes on the south side of Paddack Hills, in Avondale, but deals being handled through the Groesbeck, Dickson, Kahn Company. Herbert L. Pachoud, building, acquired eight acres on Kennedy avenue, south of Montgomery road, in Kennedy Heights.

Sales of vacant land at $80 and $90 a front foot were made on Warren and Clifton avenues, in Clinfton (sic), during the week, one of these transactions being handled by Anne H. MacNeil Johnson.

The offices of architects apparently have nothing to offer contractors for the central part of the city and the manufacturing districts immediately. During the week just closed there was some buying of single lots by individual residential builders.
