REAL ESTATE
AND
BUILDING NEWS
\u25a0 The brisk Inquiry during the last
few days has greatly pleased all real
ostate operators, for they arc convinced
O\at from now on there wLI be a re
vival In the market and that before the
lapse of many months many Important
transactions will be recorded. Perhaps
the best sign comes from the retail
merchants, who since the election of
Mayor Taylor have been eager to find
downtown locations, and several . of
them who were prophesying that there
would be no change* In the present re
tail district are now equally as positive
that It will be re-established in its old
quarters. This does not necessarily
Imply that Flllmore street, and Van
Ness avenue will be abandoned. As far
&s can be learned It is the consensus of
opinion that the city will be able to
support branch establishments of the
larger houses on those two streets* In
this connection , the remarks of "W. B.
Pringle. president of the Montgomery
street Investment company, are Inter
esting. He believes that the' downtown
movement will be In full swing in about
one yeax"s time. He said:
"Many of the merchants who are
now located uptown will naturally
have to await the expiration, of their
leases, many of which have another 12
months to run. By that time the
buildings which are now being put up
for the large houses in the downtown
district will have been completed, and
many other buildings will be ready .to
receive tenants. A retail district must
be compact, for women want all shops
to be as near to each other as possi
ble, and the opening of the big dry
goods houses In the old district will
oompeJ other stores to follow. That
the merchant is anxious to come down
town Is proved by the eagerness that
he is displaying In securing quarters
in the' buildings which are going- up.
The building on the old Russ house
site Is well rented in advance so Is
the building which Is going up on the
Fite of the old Lick house. As far as
I can see, both Montgomery and
Kearcy streets will be « popular with
the shopping element-**
KEARXT Hi:m "ILDIXG RAPIDLY
Th« work that has been done In the
past few months in Kea-rny
rpeaks well for the energies of the
city's builders. It is fast assuming its
Tormer appearance as a leading retail
business thoroughfare and agents along
the street report that inquiry is brisk
for both stores and offices. Some idea
of the importance of this street can be
pained by a knowledge of what is be
ing 1 done *by the real- estate men. Bald
win & Howell have. rented portions of
two floors in the Rosenbaum building,
southwest corner of Pine and Kearny
streets, during the last week, although
the building will not be ready for-oc
cupancy for a month or six \u25a0weeks yet.'
The s&me firm, which Is handling the
seven story reinforced .concrete build
ing owned by the ;MacDonougrh estate
company, between" Pine \u25a0 and "vßush
streets, reports having received nu
merous applications for offices. This
v.-ill be one of the finest bullidngs in
Kearny street and will be read}' for
occupancy about November 1. The Rob
bins estate has rented its -entire four
story building:, just north \?of - Sutter
street- The Brown-Gould company re
ports 19 out of 21 offices In the'D&vls
estate building at 410 Kearny. street
already rented ajid occupied. Landry
C Babin company have rented the en
tire upper floor in the Hlrsh building,
between Bush and: Pine, to, the bank
clerks' clnb. The second floor has been
leased to the Merchants' publishing
company.
. TVork was begnn last week on an
eight story offlee building at the south
westerly corner of Bush and .Kearny
streets, owned by the Schmidt estate
company* This entire bnilding has been
leased to F. A., 8u1l for a term of years.
The eight story building belonging to
Oscar Luning at the northwest corner
t>f Union Square avenue and Kearny
street will be completed In about three
months. Immediately north of this, at
the southwest corner of Post street,
the Stanton estate Is -constructing a six
etory building, which has been leased
to the Koenig,sboe company. Bullock
& Jon%s, the lessc-ss of the Meyerstein
building at ! the southeast corner of
Bosh and Kearny, expect to take pos
6eseion is about two months.
Numerous -other buildings are .well
under v way and It is predicted that be
fore the first of the year Kearny street
will be a popular and well .patronized
thoroughfare.' The Kearny street Im
provement club has a number* of
schemes on foot for Improvement,
which "Includes the repaying of . the
roadway and the construction of orna
mental - electric light poles. Owing to
the unsettled condition of the munici
pal government no effort has been made
recently to fQrce this work, but with
the change of administration. the mem;
beraof the club Intend to take, the
matters up and carry them through. . \
MISSION STREET LOOKS WELt
One of the busiest thoroughfares at
present Is Mission street. . and, there is
said. to be more building being done on
that \u25a0 thoroughfare, between First and
Fourth, than on any other street for
the came distance In town, and . the
class of , buildings ; that are. „ being
erected are , far superior to those ; that
were there before the fire. Grant ave
nue promises well.> particularly be
tween Geary and Sutter streets, and, in
fact, all the property ' In that district
has been leased and plans are now. be
ing prepared for several new buildings.
The reduction in the cost of material
It responsible for tbe promise -of
activity In rebuilding and there is also
a feeling that there is less danger from
Industrial troubles than formerly.
."Bulldlng''on an extensive scale, it" is
Raid, wIH alco be begun In Bush and
Pine streets, and according to the
statements .of real- estate men there
will be a marked; activity, all over the
city in the course of a few weeks. To
prove their '£ assertions as to a pro
nounced better feeling Lyon & Hoag say
that the building,. which Is; now being
finished next' to the M. ; '. H./de» Young
property in Market street has prac
tically all been rented.
John H. Speck says, that one indica :
tion of a quick return * to:, better times
can be Judged from the fact that his
firm has received a commission to try
to secure a residence which -has: been
valued at $50,000. and . for /which \u25a0 the
prospective buyer .is wiling ~to give
?4 4,000.
"It does not look as if thetlmes were
hard when' we • find ' a- man/ who is : anx
ious to put ,the sum of -$44,000 fini/a
residence," said . Speck. . . "We"!* are .'all
right, and when" the people i get , back
from". the\ country you ; will tflnd iat big
change all around. ;.; It . is j simply . useless
to try to find people nowadays. " Every,
body eeemsNto-be vtaking^ a/hollday,
which Is anoth'erTindication'! that money
is not scarce, v Then. I 'wish* to gi%;e : you

There is an active demand " for out

of tlio : real estate; flrm : which has this
land 011. tlie. market say, that there are
noohoieer building lots \in the -whole
United States, a : view, being/ afforded
which is .incomparable. _ One enthusi
astic real- estate man* in discussing" this
property declared that/If •It .were * in
New York . prices .would; be asked for
It which /would' be "as ; much "per ( /lnch
as is asked here per foot.': \u25a0
I-and is- selling well across the bay,
while there . Is considerable | Inquiry for
I lots in . Burllnghame arid San Mateo.
: The fact that . the Peninsular, railroad
i will pass through Redwood City on its
I way to Sari" Francisco has created a stir
lln that neighborhood, and It will help
I to, build up San Mateo county; from
j Redwood to the city, as fast Bervice is
; promised- by the owners ' of : the Telectric
line. It is also reported .that the'open
ing of the Bay Shore cutoff," which Is
not far distant, will be followed* by
many sales in the tract* which are be
ing prepared for the convenience of
home seekers. Marin county is also
attracting attention and the building
;of fast electric lines v and the opening
up of new and attractive/ sites', will
help to build up that section of the
state.
