ADVANCE OF LAKE STREET SECTION LESSON FOR PESSIMISTS
DISTRICT MADE
GIANT STRIDES
Progress of Lake St. Section;
Shows What Can Be Done in
Other Parts of the Gty
Tliere Is a movement in progress !n
Lake street that is an excellent lesson
fer an army of croakers and a reliving
err for the fax seeing and optimistic
The writer of this article once had an
option offered to him to take lots, in
Lake str«?ct at not to exceed 5110 a lot,
somewhere between Nineteenth and
Twenty-second avenues. Lake street
existed or.ly on tße map. There were
no avenues except those shown on
maps and there was no Presidio walL
The cutting through of the street and
avenues ca>te in due time and car lines
running easf and west through the
Richmond district followed.
Pacific heights properties were held
at hlgti values because tfeey command
ed flne views and the same proposition
made Xob hill and .'other city eminen
ces valuable. Any one could have seen
that Lake street views .were superb
and that the lay of the land was fine
and the Presidio was a perpetually im
proving neighbor, and that every-natu
ral condition foreshadowed the lots
then procurable forgery Email, sums
would he worth^ihousands of dollars
each. The views of t-ay and ocean and
Marin county hilis were there; Lake
street was between two or the greatest
larked areas in the world; and' the
district had sunshine, fresh air and
agreeable climate.
\O DEMAND THEX
Yet, and ail the whole lesson as ap
plicable to S-an Francisco is based on
this — the- demand for Lake street
properties was practically nil t for a
long while. The Presidio heights dis
trict had cot been built up. The west
ern boundary of the fine residence sec
tion that skirted the north shore of
San Fraccisco ended somewhere about
Scott street." Every one now sees the
Presidio heights naturally form" an ex
tension westward of Pacific height*,
and that Lake street and the Pre
sidio wall section generally carry the
earae characteristic conditions out to
the Bakers beach region, ana that the
charms of scenery. po***essed at one
end of this extended line of bay shore
Territory exist all the way out.
Undoubtedly every one could have
seen :t then, but very few would. The
sett'.ement was £!ow for a time. Lots
advanced to a few hundred dollars
each and then, to thousands of dol
lars each, and now they are eagerly
sci'ught for at top figures. .
Now the property owners, have ral
lied to do large things in 'their "own
behalf. They have not only availed
th*-ni£elves of ordinary conditions to
make their home's pleasing, but in ad
dition they have set on foot and have
nearly completed a series of street
works that have given an unsurpass
able roadway for many blocks Jn
Lsike street, smooth . and well laid
bitumen pavements. The entire re
gion * has felt the awakening and a
dozen avenues have also been improved
with fine pavements and sidewalks,
and it is a pleasure to walk through
the district. -\u25a0-*--\u25a0;
In the course" of time Lake street
has been given two inclosed residence
parks of large 'extent,* one "near the
eastern ends and one at the western
end of the thoroughfare. Costly gate
ways, large lots, carefully 'graded
slopes, building restrictions that ef
fectually prevent the entrance of ob
jectionable features' or the erection of
iow class structures, and splendid and
easily accessible building sites have
brought permanency of elegance and
3n*-uranee of time long prosperity to
Lake street, on the scenic side at least.
The word "scenic"* .is the key to tbe
entire matter. Lake street will be the
home of well to do v intelligent and
reSntil people, who "desire fine sur
roundings for their homes as long as
San FVancisco stands.
SAME IX OTHER M2CTIOXS
Why can not this increase of values
and permanency of values be repeated
in quite a number of other parts of
San Francisco? Scenery and accessi
bility and building restrictions can do
the same sort of thing over and over.
There are thousands of people in San
Francisco, unquestionably, who do not
see how the numerous hill sites repeat
advantages that have been of great im
portance Sn the enhancement , of real
e*tate values in older San Francisco.
Yet there are thousands of home sites
in the newer sections of the' western
parts of the city where the oceafl or
the *»ay or both may be viewed from
residences all day long.
There are many acres of land that
face southwest, many acres that have
a northerly frontage, and even more
acres- that, look gtraigfet out into the
Pacific ocean from high hills.
There is no view afforded in any
neighboring" city that can compare
with these Fan Francisco vistas either
in multitude or in breadth of scope
and splendor. Just a* certainly as
other marine view, sections have ad
vanced in value will these also.
The thoughtful attention of those
who are interested in the rapid
growth of San Francesco . may be di
rected, and not unprofitably. to the
lesson that this whole article con
tains.. The lesson is one of optimism,
and it is necessary tp observe only
a very few common . sense rules to ac
certala that there are great r opportu
nities to make money br good invest
ments in San Francisco realty.
Occasionally the example of one
man is ' pointed out. in the real" estate
market, to illustrate how certainly
money is made in real estate; . At this
Time all of improved Richmond, all of
improved Sunset, Pacific heights and
Presidio heights, as an entirety, are
competent witnesses, and counselors to
the -timid and. to the pessimistic

j The attention of the resident and
! also that of the chance sojourner in
San Francisco is Invittd to the fore
going; ennmeration of prominent street
corners in this city, because, larsa
boildiv^s are. under construction on
every one of the comers mentioned
•with the exception of one, f and on that
one. Polk and Turk streets, a struc
ture to cost at least $250,000 will be
erected this year for the German House
associathjn. The plans have been
tlrawn and other steps taken that naks
it certain that the structure will soon
be uiKlej- -way.
This is less than four yeari" from the
time -when all these corners were swept
bare by the .fiaraea. Tbe y* will soon
be covered by hish class improvement
that will In the agrgrresrate represent a
valuation, with land included, of not
less than 16.000,000. Possibly that will
not fail to appeal either to local pride
or to the outside capitalist who watches
local, progress as a sort of anancial
barometer worth* consulting.
Included in the somewhat striking
array are only two buildings for pub
lic use, that are being 1 constructed with
public funds. The two are the hall of
justice and the /new custom house.
Every other one Is financed by private
capital and is devised for business uses,
-with but two exceptions, the German
House Association building' and the OdJ
Fellows* building, which are for private
uses mainly.
The significant fact pertaining: to a
great part of the entire line of im
prox-ercents is > that the owners of the
lands and buildings will not occupy
them personally.. The lot? were owned
practically by the same persons before
the preat fire as now. They always
had confldence in the permanency ' of
values in San Francisco corners. They
are now building with an assurance of
long-time leases that will yield hand
some income?.
There are many other larffe buildlns?
Improvements in progress in the city,
so numerous, in fact, that it is not easy
to enumerate them. \u25a0 »- * \u25a0
In the buildings under way at the
corners are three splendid hank struc
tures — the Union trust company, the
: San Francisco savings union and the
Anglo and London-Paris national bank,
i They haVe special value in pointing" out
popular appreciation of local real es
tate values, because they are owned
and improved by the most conserva
tive financiers on the Pacific coast, the
San Francisco bankers.-
Among the business structures are
several of very high class. One of
these is the 10 story class A Xewhall
building in California street at Battecy.
Diagonally opposite a large structure
of , high class is in progress for Ger
trude Saunders. In lower Market street
there ia much building activity. Foun
dations have been laid deep for larga
structures at three corners. Pile driv
ers have been sinking for weeks, and
their puQngs and poundings have been,
at the rate of about $20 for each pile
driven and cut off for use. The Mac
donough estate company. Charles Hol
brook and Mrs. Margaret ' Enright are
builders in that neighborhood. The ag
gregate cost of . laad and improve
ments involved in therr operations runs
Into large figures.
