January makes a very good beginning
for the year in the building line. Forty
permits have been issued during the
month, the majority being for the cree
ton of new buildings. Messrs. w and j.
deBruyn Hops will erect twenty-eigh.
frame buildings in the southeastern sec
ton, and Mr.. J. c. Posten will erect ten
frame houses in the same section. \ num-
Der of permits were granted for new
houses in the southern section.
The last permit granted yesterday was
10 Mr.. ]. D. Weed, to rebuild the four
story brick building recently destroyed by
fire, at Broughton and Barnard streets.
Mr.. Weed filed his application atathe tax
assessors office, at 1870 o'clock. Within
half an hour the application had been APP
proved by Supt. Mcguire of the fire depart
ment and Acting Mayor Tiedeman and
before ? o'clock Secretary Osborne of the
Board of Assessors, had mailed the permit
to Mr.. Weed This demonstrates the ra-
pidity with which the routine required for
applications for building permits can be
worked when there are no Objectionable
features TO the proposed building. Mr.
Daniel Hogan has also been granted a
permit to restore his four-story brick
building on Broughton street, which was
badly damaged a the time of the Weed
fire.
Such activity in the building line is
unusual at this season of the year. but
the building boom seems to have lost
count of the seasons. The tearing down
of 100 Or more frame Buildings on the
property recently acquired for the union
depot and the Seaboard terminals, which
is now in progress, is expected to result
in the erection of a number of new build
ings elsewhere in the city Builders and
dealers in supplies generally look forward
to very busy year, and this prospect
lends interest to the situation now exist
ing. as the result of the demand of the
workmen of the building trades upon the
contractors for lesser hours and decreased
pay.
