In making a review of April realty
business, Thomas Magee & Sons* real

The fact that this corner will be im
proved with a handsome 25 story class
A building , adds considerable interest
to the sale. During- the month six ad
ditional deeds were recorded for prop
erties located in the section ; south of
Market street, and between East and
Main streets, involving , a total of ap
proximately $950,000. - As In the case
of previous deeds in this section, these
deeds were also taken in the names of
various individuals, but are believed to
have. been made for the ; Southern Pa
cific company. Altogether 53 deeds
have now been recorded in this section,
involving a total lof about $5,400,000.

The Sterling Realty company has just
put on the market a new block in the
Richmond District t between Forty
fourth and \ Forty-fifth avenues, Balboa
(B) and Cabrillo (C) streets. At con
siderable expense they have graded this
block to the official line and grade, and
have macadamized the streets \ and side-
walks .surrounding , ; the * block. ; '.;/.:
't'i The - extension fof the new,* municipal
Geary street line is; now : being, con;
structed around this block and people
will be able ,to ride direct to the ferry
without transferring - . This district is
particularly fortunate „in having ex
tremely fine transportation facilities,
as there are three separate car lines
within \*tL% few blocks. !«♦ The **; Sterling
Realty company reports \ a number of
sales ■ already made lin \ this ' block.
sclt is expected that the new municipal
railroad will certainly cause arf great;
many new homes to be \ erected .« in ; thls
neighborhood. This tract is within a.
stone's % throw *'of .*• Golden ft Gate park,
Sutro heights, the Cliff house, and baa
