GREENVILLE'S WANT.
Acres of Lots That Rapid

Build Up.

| IN real estate, would suggest walk

broad expanses of unimproved property
meet the eye. At glance it is seen that
the ground is high and suitable in every
! respect for dwelling house purposes Lots
| upon lots are offered for sale. and it seems
| to be the general opinion of real estate
| men that the property is being offered at
sacrifice prices. The very finest lots are

purposes they are worth almost double

Perhaps the chief barrier in the path of
advancement tor all this property is the
lack of provements In the neighbor-
hood and the poor facilities for reaching
the city proper. The Woodlawn sewer,

sioners Is having its good effect, but
there is lots OF room for many such i'm
prOvements before the assessable value of
the property Will be up to the standard it
should attain. Another drawback is the
tedious journey from the ferry to the sec
tion in question. The horse car facilities
furnished by the Jersey City
and Bergen Railroad are not
