Are confident that no one win deny that
the placing Of the first hundred lots in
RGltOl Addition
On the market last year was the event Of
the year in real estate circles. Nothing
that transplred during the year had so i'm
portant and perceptible an effect on the
growth and building up Of the city. This
was due to various
1suuuuuuj rir,.-rhs proper
ty IS naturally the choicest residences dis
trict In the city, owing to its nearness to
the business district, and also because it
lays perfectly and affords the most extern
sive view to be lad in the city. and ali of
sne choicest and grandest scenery Of the
Puget Sound country being visible from its
borders, except Snoqualmie Falls.
second-A ggeas many representative
business and professional men in Seattle
had deferred building permanent homes
until this property should come on the
market, and We absolutely refused in every
case to sell lots to any but persons OF emil
nent responsibility and good social stand
ing. In this way the location acquired q
tone and distinction it would not other
wise have had.
Third-As consequence it is being built
up with beautiful and costly homes, and is
even now the toniest and most sought
after residence district in the city. As an
evidence of this it may be well to name
some of
