RECORD IN REAL ESTATE.

different from what has already been said
The demand for good residence and business
property continues without diminution. The
property on ST. Anthony hill takes the lead
in respect to residence sites, and probably
always will, especially as there
is now probability of having
water mp there within a reasonable length OF
time. The street car service, it is well under
stood, viii be extended wherever it is deemed
desirable or necessary, so that the distance
will not be so much of an objection as it has
been in the past. Dayton's Bluff is also look
Ing up rs residence property. OF course,
the heavy business houses are going in
on lower Third. Fourth, Sibley and
other street in that vicinity. The foundations
are going in very rapidly for the immense
new blOc< of Merriam Il Wilder, on the
corner of Fifth and SIbley streets. This, when
completed, will be one of the largest blocks
in The city, and will occupy a
very convenient location for business
purposes. Work has been commenced
in good earnest on the Northern Pa
cific building at the foot of Fourth
street, and 4 large gang of workmen are con-
as rapidly rs possible. This is as solid piece
of masonry as there is in this solid city. The
foundations were very expensive, and are as
substantial rs the pyramids. They are not
second TO even the Giltllan block, and that
is saying a good deal. The work of ex-
cavating for the First National bank block, on
The corner of jackson and Fourth streets, is
still progressing. 1t was a good deal of an
undertaking to attempt to find foundation
there for it viii be necessary to go very low.
The workmen keep at it though and
are making very good progress.
The foundations for 2'iller's
block, on the corner of Seventh and Il, bert
streets arc nearly all in. This block will
have over 100 feet front on Seventh street by
100 feet in depth, and will occupy a very com
handing position on that busy thoroughfare
Mr.. Herman Greve Is preparing for
the erection of his block on
Fourth street between jackson and Sibley
streets. This block will have an ornamental
iron front which it is claimed will be the
handsomest in the city. All the blocks on
lower Seventh street that have been mentioned
heretofore are progressing rapidly, and will
soon be completed Snd occupied. The archi
tects and real estate men are all
fully occupied, the former in
preparing plans and Specifications
for buildings to be erected and the latter in
disposing of real estate. In both lines every
thing is full of activity and hustle, and all in
dicauOns point to an unusually active sum-
mer's business Nir. II. s. Falrchild reports
