one of the most important of the
recent sales in the district south of
Market street was closed yesterday
when the southwest corner of Fifth
and Folsom streets was sold by Mrs.
Helena Schlessinger, through her
agents, Davidson & Leigh, to Mrs.
Rosalie j. Colombat. The property.
which has a frontage of go feet on
Fifth street. by rs on Folsom, with
frame improvements, comprising eight
stores and eight flats. bringing 1852 so
per month, was purchased by the late
A. Schlessinger in 1901 for $35,0OO.
This is the first sale made in this To-
cation for some time and. goes to in
dIoate that the intention of investors
is attracted to this street where there
seems to be better chance for profit
than on the higher priced streets, both
east and west. The new owner will
modernize the property to some ex-
tent and hold it as a permanent in
vestment.
