This Company has been formed for the purpose of acquir-
ing real property in London, including leaseholds, for build-
ing thereon, letting, or selling.
Particular attention will be directed to the acquisition of
propertie in first-rate localities, where, by the erection of
suitable buildings, a large profit can be derived.
With this view a contract has been entered into With a firm
who are amongst the largest private owners in the City of
London, for the purchase of their city properties, which
cover an area of nearly an acre and a halt, and ate situated in
Graceehurch-street, Fenchurch-street, Mincing-lane, and
Mark-lane. Plans can be seen at the offices of the solicitors.
In this purchase it is stipulated that the vendors shall
guarantee for a period of years a minimum return upon the
purchase money, which will secure at once a liberal dividend
to the shareholders, and which will be further increased
when the contemplated improvements are, as they shortly
will be, fully carried out.
The Company will have the advantage of b3rrowing on
their debentures, at rates of interest much under the per
tentage gua• anteed ; and for the present it has been arranged
with the vendors that the larger portion of their purchase
money shall remain unpaid at 4 per cent. interest.
It is a peculiarity attached to land in the City that the ex-
tent of business to be conducted in its very limited space is
daily increasing. The value of the time of successful traders,
and the convenience of particular localities, are found to be
of more moment than question of rent.
The ac 'ommodation allotted to the produce markets in the
the neighbourhood of these properties has within the last
few years been doubled, yet the scale of rent has increased in
a greater degree, and there seems every reason to anticipate
that the demand for first-class offices in these localities will
continue to be in advance eft ,e supply.
Eight thousand shares are subscribed for, the remaining
twelve thousand are offered o the public.
In case of no allotment the deposit will be returned.
