THE WEEK IN REALTY.
ActiUity IN Market More Widespread
Encouraging Outlook.

The activity in the real estate market last week
widespread than It has been for a long
time. 1t not confined to any particular section
and large sales of vacant property. fathouses and
tenement houses were made. and excellent Fifth
deal, the sale of the Downing mansion, No. SEQ
F'ifth-ave. was consummated by John N. Golding
for various persons to Charles T. Yerkes. While the
transactions affecting hathouses north of Fifty
ninth-st. are not numerous they some
weeks ago, still the demand for this type prop
erty is good.
The feature of the market is the bright outlook
for vigorous market in almost all fields, and espe-
cially for Fort Washington Heights plots Millions
of dollars represent the outlay of investors there
and ii is not likely that the majority of these will
have TO wait much longer to reap the reward Of
their foresight One of the largest holding syndi-
Gates in this section is headed by Charles T. Barney
president Of the Knickerbocker Trust Company
His syndicate has placed wise restrictions on the
property 1t controls which. IL is considered make
lines.
1t is the consensus of opinion of real estate brok
ers that 1904 Will be notable for great building
boom, and that this will be liveliest in the upper
west Side in The Bronx, In Long Acre Square and
in the central Fifth-ave. and business sections
There seems be little doubt that the movement TO
improve vast tracts of property in the upper
West Side section IS well underway. Many impor-
ported last week. One of them was the sale by
Slawson Sc Hobbs for the estate of John P. Higgins
TO the Atlantic Realty Company of plot of four
lots at the southwest corner of One-hundred and
siXteenth-s and Broadway and another sale by the
same brokers of plot of two lots the west side
