"How high will central real estate
in our large cities ultimately go p
asks the Atlanta Constitution. New
York, for instance. The site of St
Luke's Hospital, on Fifth avenue,
recently sold for 81, 100000, which is
$4,000 for every front foot of each OF
its four sides. Forty years ago tho
property was sold for $50, 600.
Commenting on this precious dirt
the Pittsburg ChroDicie says that
some real estate in Pittsburg doub
les in value every seven years.
Property commanding such prices
is central or advantageOusly located
But III is easy to raise the value o.
any city real estate by improving it
In building, the latest fashion ant
the tastes of customers and tenant,
should be studied. Owners of old
fashion and inconycnient houses vii
find that it pays to remodel then
and give them n few decorativ,
hourishes. Most of our growinl
cities are undergoing the process o
rebuilding, and architectural attrac
tiveness is studied. With due at
tention to these hints, there is n,
telling how high improved real estat,
will go in Atlanta and other cities
Rapid transit to the suburbs vii
not hurt central property in flour
ishing cities, In point Of fact it vii
make central location more yalu
able"
