local syndicate of capitalists. The
lot is 95x159 feet. The property has
been sold to the Consolidated Realty
company for $2OO COO. The same conf
pany owns the adjoining lot on the
west fronting Ninth street, 65x100 feet,

1t Is the purpose of the Hamburger
Realty company to erect modern
building of eight stories on the lot,
95x224 feet, to cost about S500,000 The
company will occupy ground floor
space as offices and will provide a
number of stores. Offices and apart
ments will be on the upper floors.
