Eager Buyers Continue to Flock to the
Coast City-Huntington Buys Road
Special to The Herald.
REDONDO, July II, 8 p. m.-The
realty situation overshadows every
thing else, and it is the all-absorbing
topic.
Where there was one dealer yester-
day, there are two today, carriages,
stores, restaurants tentS-in fact,
every nook and corner is utilized.
Today Superintendent Perry of the
Los Angeles and Redondo railway re-
fused $4,000 for his home on Pacific
avenue, and w. ]. Clighorn refused
$4,000 for his home on Bonita avenue
Negotiations are pending whereby
the bank block on the corner of Elmer.
aid street and Pacific avenue may
again change hands, this time al
SS0, 900 or $S5,000. This block was
bought about three years ago for
about $S0O0 The junction of Pacific
avenue and Emerald street has been
thronged, and the company's Office
opposite the Cutler block has been
crowded from early this morning until
late at night.
Through w. M. Garland it is learned
that the entire frontage from the ex-
treme south to Agate avenue on the
north has changed hands. AT the close
OF business hours tonight it is expected
that the million dollar mark for realty
sales will be nearly reached.
Mr.. Huntington's touch seems to
have had magic in it, as the natural
attractions of Redondo, together with
that gentleman's reputed intentions
has produced a state of things, in the
estimation of those who have figured
in realty transactions elsewhere, not
hitherto found in the history of beach
towns on the Pacific coast.
Mr.. Huntington announces officially
here today that he has completed the
purchase of the Los Angeles and Re-
dondo railway, and will double track
II the entire distance. The sale in
cludes the wharves of the company.
Referring to the expression boom
which has been applied by an after
noon paper to the sales at Redondo Mr.
Garland says: "The substantial bus
mess men of Los Angeles are buying
Redondo property. No sale has been
made on terms other than one-third
cash. Hundreds of homes will be built
here by persons who intend to make
. Redondo their place of residence"
To those familiar with sales made
during last week and the first of this
week it is evident that activity in Re-
dondo is there to stay.
