THE rR1R1rNE,s PICTURE DID IT.

The demand for apartments on the upper west
Side appears from present indications TO exceed
the record Of all former seasons. and owners OF
apartnent houses look forward TO q period OF un-
usual prosperity. The office of Slawson & Hooos
q well known West Side real estate firm which
has charge Of the majority of high class apart
r,ent houses on the West Side. between Fnty-hfth
and -hundred-and-tenth SITS. has been fairly
besiered throughout the last week with appncants
for apartments No less than two hundred apart
ents were leased by this firm in the course OF the
week.
In the Ansonia a large. number Of apartments
were rented for periods Of from one to nVe years
as result of the full page picture and the de-
SUPPLEMENT- OF last Sundays Tribune. The De
surpasses the most sanguine expectations. Saw
apartments left for rent in the Ansonfa by octo-
her / =,
The reason for this extraordinary prosperity Is
that while the demand for accommodations from
tenants has increased. there has been cons'd-
erahe lapse In building In the West Side section
south of Ninetieth-st. Between Fifty -ninth-st
and Ninetieth-st., matter of fact. plans for
only six new apartment houses have been pro-
jected since January / 1901. Beyond Ninetieth-st,
in Harlem and lower Washington Heights the
volume OF current production is greater but even
there II is considerably below that Of previous
years. On the other hand, the demand for apart
ment housing is unquestionably greater than for
several seasons.
