important Realty Sale.

The Eugene M. Wilson property on
Hawthorn avenue, which was to have
been the site of the Catholic pro.cathe-
dral, was Wednesday sold by the. I'm
maculate Conception parish to the
Holy Angels academy.
This beautiful piece of ground oppo-
site Hawthorn park, while it was
deemed not sufficiently central or easy
of access for the great pro-cathedral
which is to be built by the Catholic
body of Minneapolis, will provide an
ideal site for the academy.
The Holy Angels academy next
spring will improve the fine building
on the site, making it more commo.
dious than at present. 1t will be a
handsome and substantial building and
in every way adapted to the needs of
the growing academy.
The Wilson property was purchased
about two years ago by the Immacu-
late Conception parish, and it was for
some time intended that the pro-
cathedral should be erected there.
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1905-07-01

The present splendid site for the
pro-cathedral having been fixed upon,
however, no disposition of the Wilson
property had been made up to this
time, and it was simply held by the
Immaculate Conception parish for fu-
ture disposal.
The sale to the Holy Angels acad-
envy is looked upon as most happy
disposition of the fine site, and the
new home of the academy will be an
ornament to the vicinity.
1t is understood that there will be
no difficulty about the transfer of a
small corner of the pro-cathedral site
on Hennepin avenue to the park board,
provided a similar corner of the block
below, namely, between Fifteenth and
Sixteenth streets, can be acquired BY
the board, in order to carry out its
purpose of running Hennepin avenue
straight through to the Parade park.
This would give splendid view from
Hennepin avenue, which, if the pres
ent turn of the avenue were retained,
could not be had
