All R. K. Thomas Property
Between West Temple and

TWENTY THREE BUILDINGS
NOW STAND ON TRACT
Kendall Terrace and Kendall

Paid 1926, 900.

One of the largest real estate deals
in Salt Lake since the Newhouse deal
was one which was concluded yester-
day, in which Orange j. Salisbury be
came the owner Of the R X. Thomas
property on South West Temple and
South First West streets, and between
Fourth and Fifth South streets. The
amount involved is S125 900.
Included in the transaction is the
property known as Kendall Square and
terrace and the Thomas homestead
The ground purchased covers nearly
FIVE acres, half n block. The West
Temple street frontage is $40 feet and
that on First West 25O feet
Through the middle Of the block
from West Temple To First West runs
n street fifty feet wide. There are %
buildings. on the grounds, including
Kendall terrace.
The terrace contains fourteen three
story apartments built of brick and
having modern conveuiences. The pro
perty ms it stands is productive Of a
large income from rentals.
This property is admirably situated
for both residence and business pur-
poses Especially is this true Of that
portion which fronts on West Temple
street. The trend Of the city's bust
ness is now southwark and present
conditions show that it will not likely
be all confined To one street.
Mr.. Salisbury has not yet indicated
what his purpose is in the matter of
making further improvements on the
property, but 1t need be no surprise to
learn that n business block with a
twenty-rod front on West Temple street
is projected. The business demands of
the city make the immediate erection
of large modern business buildings ne
