With the exception of the time of the

messed the erection of more buildings
in the city of Long Beach and it's i'm
mediate vicinity than at any other time
in its history. According to estimates
made by A. NJ. Goodhue, manager of the
San Pedro Lumber company, at this
place, the improvements of the past
year amount in value to the sum of
$135,O00.
There have been 100 new buildings
erected within the corporate confines of
the new city, while in the territory adj
joining, viz: Alamitos, Cerritos, and
Signal HILL there have been at least
as many more.
The new cottages and residences are
superior to those formerly in vogue here,
when, as rule, ANY old thing" would
do to live in at the seaside was the
idea that most of the summer residents
acted on.

improvements made during the year
and the one all Long Beachers take the
