SIGNIFICANT LEASES
Indicate Material Broadening of the
Business District.

Two significant leases have been
closed by F. g. Smith of Nickels &
Smith. One is on the land on Henne-.
pin west Of the Holmes hotel, to Kay
ser & Co., on which a building will be
put up, and the other is three stories of
the W. s. Dwinnell building. 213-2l5
Nicollet avenue, formerly occupied by $.
E. Olson & Co., to the Miller Davis
Printing company The latter building
has been rebuilt since the fire and the
printing company takes all but the
ground floor. The lease is for ten years
and is held by the agents to mean that
lower Nicollet is not to be abandoned
as business center: Following the pur-
chase Of the Hotel Nicollet property
by the United States Realty company,
it is a good sign. A few years ago it
would have been regarded suicidal for a
firm of this nature to go SO far down
town.
The lease to Kayser & Co. on Henne-
pin is further testimony to the fact that
that avenue is coming back to it's own:
1t is something of a pioneer move for
retail business firm to go to Hennepin
above Eighth street, and the venture
will be watched with interest.
Taken with the immense amount of
building near Seventh and Hennepin,
the change is believed by the lessees
to be far-sighted and a good one.
