Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1904-12-31

More modern homes have been
erected in the city of Rock Island in
1894 than I'm any year Of its history.
While there have been years where
the number Of houses butt was
greater. the substantial type character
izing those of the year closing today
was lacking
Few Of the homes that have been
erected during the past year are be-
low $1,000. and the cost of the ma
jority Of them was between $4,000
and $4,000. a number going as. high as
$4,000. exclusive Of the ground The
more notable improvements in home
building have been south Of Ninth
avenue. and I'm the new additions that
were plated during the year many Of
the lots that have not already been oc-
cupied by houses have been bought
up with a view TO building the

remains little space for the building of
residences between Twelfth and
Seventeenth streets. unless one goes
back Of Twelfth avenue. and the indi-
cations are that in the coming year the
trend will be still more TO the south

sss@slsses Property yaise.-
The building OF the Longview line
has stimulated property values in the
southern limits and beyond. and has
had the effect of Fastening the plat
ting OF a tract Of land adjoining
Reservoir park. where the coming year
will see some Of the prettiest homes
of the city go up. IL is reported. In
the opinion OF many the territory south
of Sixteenth avenue in the not distant
future will spring up the handsomest
residences Of the city. What would
accelerate this movement would be
the annexation OF South Rock Island
to the city. and there has been an
agitation along this line, but IL has
not met with the favor that IL was ex-
pected IL would. though it's consumma-

Mechanics Remaain In City.
Early In the year there was specu.a-
ton as to the effect the building the
immense shops Of the Rock Island road
east OF Moline would have on the
three cities. II was predicted in some
quarters that the hundreds of mechan-
les living here and in the other cities
and employed at New Shops would
move their families nearer to their
work: that homes would be erected
for them, and they could rent until
they were in position to build for
themselves. The men have chosen to
remain in the cities, and for their
accommodation the company provides
n work train. taking them to the
shops in the morning and returning
them to their homes at night. The
company has threatened the discon-
tinuance Of the train, and there have
been, conferences with the chief Of
ficials in Chicago. from whom there
has been exacted a promise that the
train will be maintained permanently.

Although the Tonopah railroad com.

that there is any justification Of rail
