Estate Circular note the attention that
is paid by buyers to parts of the city
that have been neglected heretofore.
From this circumstance is drawn the
conclusion that buyers are firmly con-
WINGED OF the future OF San Francisco.
This view has previously been ex-
pressed Ia the real estate columns of
this paper. The Real Estate Circular
quotes illustrative instances that were
Afforded in the transactions Of the last
month and the showing is al once In
structive and interesting.
Localities that are IN the line Of rapid
Improvement are mentioned as fol-
lows: Montgomery street from Sacra-
mento 60 Washington; North Beach
property from Pacific to North Point
The prospects are better for all parts
OF the city, whether adapted to resi-
dence use, warehousing, manufacturing
or business sites for mercantile trans
actions Out of this grows wide
spread activity and the confidence that
is leading purchasers 10 seek sections
for investment in which there has been
less movement than IN the centers of
business
