One of the biggest real estate deals
consummated during the latter part of
the week was the transfer of the pro-
rerty located on the east side of Main
street between Sixth and Seventh
South streets. from Mrs. Zurviah G.,
Eardlcy to Marc Lichensteln for con-
sideration of $4,000. The transfer in
cudes the ownership of twelve houses,
one of them store building. and lot
with 1929 feet frontage on Main. $50
feet deep and measuring lSl feet at
the cast end. AS the purchase is u
valuable rental Mr., Lichenstein will
utilize IT in that way for some time.
1t is probable. however, that his new
acquisition will soon be included in
the business section proper and when
that time arrives 1t will be put to its
proper use.
While preparatiors for the erection
of business blocks are being rushed
with all possible haste, plans for other
costly structures are passing through
their embryonic stage. Among those
that are now under contemplation one
of the most noteworthy is that Of the
Joseph Smith Memorial building,
which is to be built by the Latter-day
Saints church on the site of the old
Deseret News building, northeast cor
ner Main and South Temple streets,
opposite the Tabernacle grounds. AL
though the plans of the undertaking
have not vet rcached the stage where
il is deemed advisable To announce
them to the public, ii is understood
that the building is. to a certain ex-
tent at least. to be used for office pur-
poses. The site IS now occupied by the
old News building, a curio store and
several smaller structures.
1t has recently been rumored that
the Keith o 'Brien building is soon to
be enlarged by the addition of several
new stories. Although the structure as
originally built is so constructed that
Ii can readily be converted into ten
story building it has been ascertained
from authoritative sources that no i'm
mediate action for the purpose of en-
Iargng the building will be taken. 1t
has been stated, however, that lust as
soon as conditions warrant such q pro-
ccdure the owners of the building will
comply with all the demands of the
times
