ssLADE ADOPTION.
A Beautiful and Convenient Location
for Buildings.


No cityin the South has grown with
greater rapidity than has Roanoke,
and probably not one is on a firmer
foundation considering its age.
Roanoke swelis and grows each day,
and unlike most cities, does not grow in
any ore direction more than an other,
but is being rapidly built up on every
side, north, east, south and west.
The influx of population since 1884
has been enormous, and hundreds OF
buildings have gone up to supply the
demand. There has baen no lull in
the erection of houses this winter, ex-
cept that occasioned by the rain, and
drive in what direction, you will hear
the sound Of the hammer and evil
dences of building meet your eye.
Hundreds who rented houses few
wears ago pay taxes now, owning
their dwellings, and the erection of res
licences is the best index to the growth
of the city and the strongest assur
ance that the city is here to stay.
The homes that have been built
here within the past yeara are, many
of them, as handsome, artistic and
expensive as can be found anywhere.
To accommodate the ever increasing
population, numerous additions have
been laid off and the lots placed on
the market. Among the many valu-
able properties hereabouts, none Of
fer greater inducements as d place OF
residence than the Glade addition.
This property is situated just east
of Glade creek and is traversed by the
Vinton extension of the Roanoke
street railway, which places it in di.
rect communication with the central
portion of the city, a person can live
in that section, and if his place OF
business is in the upper part
of the city, or even in the
West End, he can take the street car
and be ready for the days work at
the usual time. Every benefit OF a
suburban residence is obtained, with
out any of it's discomforts.
The property is well drained and
therefore healthy 1t has been di-
vided into lots by the laying off OF
wide streets and avenues. The view
to be obtained from Glade addition is
beautiful. On the east, towering
| hundreds Of feet in the air, are the
| blue RluSe mountains. "lllie ot uiiS
south the Roanoke river winds itself
like u silver thread among the hills,
forming one of the most beautiful
bits of scenery anywhere in Southwest
Virginia One of the principal feat
ures about the Glade property is the
easy terms upon which the lots can be
gotten. The prices have been placed
so low that it is within the power OF
every man to own his home. Messrs.
William NJ. wager & Co., are the
agents for the company and they will
take pleasure in giving any informa,
ton concerning the property. Call
on them at their Office on South JET

EAST END ADDITION.
DesirabiIity OF and Demands for Lois
There.

As the summer advances much ac
tivity in building operations is
noticed, and many new houses are Il
process of construction. This natur
ally makes the real estate market
much firmer, and agents are cores
pondingly happy. Simmons y Co.
have been doing a rushing business,
one of the best since the firm was es.
tablished. The East End property
is, changing hands very rapidly, ard
many new houses will be erected this
season.
Among the prominent additions in
the East End, is that of the Oak
Ridge Land Company. The addition
lies ust east of Belmont and south of
the East Side Land Company's prop
ertv and adioins the farms of Messrs.
George Taylor and &. w. Carr.
This offers every inducement as a
place of residence. 1t is removed
from the business portion of the city
and therefore gives aquiet, suburban
home, while at the same time it is
near the dummy line and therefore
quite convenient to the city.
The land is high and dry and has
just enough slope to give it good
drainage. Gas and water mains are
being put in and new streets are be-
ing laid out. Everything is PROP
tious, and it is destined to take its
proper place in the front rank. 1t is
located near the furnace, rolling mill,
bridge works and the machine works,
and offers, therefore, greater induce
ments to the workingman, as it is
near his work. A number of neat
cottages are going up and others have
been contracted for.
James S. Simmons 81 Co. are agents
for the company, and they can give
good bargains. The property is &C.
ing rapidly, andif you want to obtain
q good bargain call on them at once:
The prices for the lots are low and
the terms easy, so every man can own
