REAL ESTATE AND BUILDING Ths Showing Made by the Offi cial Statistics A REVIVAL OF BUSINESS A Few Stores and Many Buildings Are Commenced The Dealers' Reports of Business Done In Real Estate—A Loin-Delayed Street- Opening Case Seventy-two permits for new buildings were issued during the week ended yes terday, the total cost of the proposed buildings being estimated at $73,329. The number of permits Bhows that building has recoivea a new impetus,tor it exceeds that registered last week, and the amount to be invested indicates that the builders are largely of the home ouiiding class who do not possess princely incomes, but are workers newly arrived in the commu nity. While the sto'e and lodging bouse builders are not altogether without repre sentation, their number is small. It. I. DeHail took out a permit for the con struction of a four-story brick building to be used for stores and rooms, on First street/near Wilmington, at an outlay of $<1000; W. O. Bridges is engaged in the erection of two two-story buildings on Main street between Holly and Kailroad streets, which will cost $2000, and this concludes the list of store buildings rep resented in this weeks' permits. The United Btothren have amassed sutlicient of this world's goods to warrant them in tho erection of a $0000 church, and a permit was taken out for tne build ing of such a structure at tbe southeast corner of Hope and Pico streets. M. E. Richards will expend $3000 in the con struction of an engine hous9 on First street near St. Louis. Mrs. Ed. Botello has let the contract and taken out a per mit for the building of a two-story frame Hut to cost $4000, and to stand at tne cor ner of Twelfth and Olive streets, which is the extent of the week's operations in tbo beginning of buildings for public uses. The reminder of the list is made up of dwelling houses averaging about $1000 In cost, though there ore a fair number of buildings costing more money. Among the latter are the dwelling houso of Louis Gottschalk at the corner of Georgia Bell and Eighteenth street, to cost $3500; the residence of L. L. Bowen, Sixteenth and Bush streets, to cost $3000; that of J. \V. Webster, Adams, between Main and Maple, to cost $2800, and that of M. E. Hichards, a two-story frame building to be erected on Seventeenth street between Grand avenue and Hill streets, at a cost of $2500. Of dwellings evidently intended for sale for rent, inasmuch aa they are built in groups,!. S. Ewing is putting up three houses at the corner ot Tenth and Blame, at a cost of $2720, and Sperite Bodero, who is building six dwellings at the corner of Ord and Castelar streets, to cost $3UOO. In addition to the buildings included in the list for which permits were issued, Mackay A Young are now at work on their $180,000 job of providing comfort able houses in which the young Los An geles idea shall be taught how to shoot — which amount, it may not 'ie out of place to add, would have oeen very much larger had not some excellent and effect ive figuring been dono by City Superin tennent of Buildings Strange and the members of the city council. Not yet begun, but the plans are ready, is the construction of tbe new city jail, to he located or First stteet west of Broadway, and which will represent an outlay on the nart of ihe city of about $00,000. Bids will be opened lor its con strucion on the Ist aay of the coming month. Taken all together, the week's build ing record is a pleasant one fcr patriotic citizens to contemplate. it ia a large growth and a healthy one,free from symp toms of boom and speculative over-huild ing, and indicative of growth in produc tion and in business as well as in popu lation. STREET IMPROVEMENT The Begfnnlng of the End of the Figueroa Street Fight For twenty years or more an intermit tent war has been carried on among in dividuals, in the counoil and in the courts relative V> the. opening or abandonment of Figueroa street at its junction with Sixth, in order that a large section shut eff from easy access to the city might be mads available to the home-builder who has not been taught to regard the longest way round as the shortest way home. The Figueroa street light has made a good deal of city history—too much to detail here, and at best the average citi zen directly or indirectly interested is chiefly concerned with tho outcome. Tnere is a large tract of beautiful builo ing sites, extending from Pearl street to Westlake park and from Orango strcjt to First street, which has lain idle and prac tically unsaleable all these years for lack of an outlet to I'earl street - Tne first step to remedy matters was taken when it was determined to do a ratner formid able job of grading, including all the streets on the Woolen Mill tract from Beandry avenue to Bixel street and from tho southerly line of the tract to Third street. The land owners and the council have taken the necessary preliminary steps, and though Ihe sudden and severe illness of the contractor lias delayed the signing of the contract, it is hoped and hslieveu that the matter will bo carried through to prompt completion. The Figueroa street quostion will be then half solved, to be completed by tbe opening of Sixth street in accordance with the petition of Johnson and others, presented at tho last meeting of the coun cil. This opening entails some expense, hut less now than will lie the ease at any time hereafter, and sooner or later Sixth street must be opened front Fremont ave nue straight tliroogh to the city limits. Even if the old Figueroa street were re vived and fought through to a successful finish by the council the stretch of land from Fremont avenue to Crown hill would still be without practicable outlet. It has been a long tight and at times a bitter one, but a stage has been reached which gives reasonable grounds for hope tbat some oi I lie prettiest territory in the city limits will come into the market duly provided with street facilities.

The Toe-Much-Bullding Cry The Builder and Contractor has the fol lowing appropritte remarks to make apropos of the fear expressed that Los Angeles is likely to see more houses built than can be profitably used. The absurdity of such a cry with rents advancing! Some general apprehension exists among certain owners of property and certain houses of money that Los Angeles is being overbuilt, and that as a result rents are liable to decline and ptoporty to remain vacant. If these grasping, incredulous ana dis satisfied people could take the pains to make a round of the real estate offices, or consult the long columns of advertise ments in the daily papers tbey would discover that the demand for houses at tiiis time is far m excess of tbe supply. Great rows of Hats are beginning to ap pear in the city and the bid for oo cupancy by houseless tenants, fills t'lem almost before they are tinished, and rents have in the past year advanced an aver age of 25 ocr cent and land value has :n many places gone up 100 per cent. The immediate cause for tbis great riso in land values is the great influx of popula tion brought about by tbo springing up of the oil industry.
