Real Estate Brokers and

BIGWAREH0USEPLANNED
Will Be Built on u Street.
Many Apartment Houses
Being Erected.

With each week, as the season adj
yances. the prospect for a good business
in the domain OF real estate and build
ing becomes more alluring. One OF the
brokers who has been in business here
for good many years was heard 70 say,
a few days ago, that real estate affairs
here are in better shape now than at
any time since 1882. This statement
seems To be borne cut by the steadily
increasing record of transfers, no less
than by the numerous large loans made
for building purposes. Respecting the
class of structures for which the ma
5ority of orders is given architects and
builders agree that the apartment house
is decidedly in the majority, and real es-
tate agents declare that the demand
for apartments of all sizes and prices is
practically unlimited.
1t is also noticed that even the smaller
OF these buildings are constructed on a
more liberal scale as regards their in
terror equipment. Thus. for instance, the
heating by furnace for each particular
fat has been abandoned. and IN its
stead has come the heating of an entire
row of these apartment houses by hot
water. The augmentation of convent
ences OF this sort in even the more
moderate price apartments may account
In a large measure for tho steadily in
creasingl demand for the same.
Plenty of Private Dwellings.
1t is not TO be supposed, however, that
there is a material falling off in the
building of separate residences In
nearly every section of the city whole
rows of these can be seen going up. They
are of all sizes; from the modest two
story dwelling to the pretentions three
and four-story structure: and in point OF
exterior and interior appointment there
is noticeab BILE every degree and variety of
style and expensIveness or economy, as
the ease may be. Some people may be
deferred from building by the high price
of labor and material, but the aggregate
seems to be coming up 10 the expecta-
ftons Of those chiefly interested

Union Station Interior.

A good deal has been said and written
about the general outside appearance of
the new Union Station. and Washing
fonians have gotten a fairly good idea
as TO how the big building will look
when completed, but as TO the interior,
or rather that part of it which most
concerns the general pubi;c-the general
