BANNER YEAR FOR DEALERS

With the wonderful and rapid growth and
development OF the city within the past few
Years. and especially In the past year, the
southeast section has kept pace. In its
natural advantages, it is claimed. the south
east Lead all other sections. These advan-
Iages were recognized by the projectors Of
the capital hundred years age, and those
interested say they are just as apparent
now as then Southeast Washington occU-
pies high ground, much of it higher than
IS any other section in the city. It's thor
oughfarez are broad, its parks and park
ways numerous. its streets lined with shade
trees. and these features have been appre-
oatei by those seeking homes.
Real estate in the southeast section has
l-rl DO great demand for the past two
years. not abnormally. It Is declared. but
with steady adva nee. The building Of the
new union s,atioA and the almost whole

for that vast Improvement. TO say nothing
of purchases in the southern part of the
city for the railroads. have forced many
people to seek new homes, and "A majority
OF those displaced horse owners sought
Lsbitations In the southeast section and in
vested their money there. In the case Of
the purchase of land for the new office

up the section AS the contemplated i'm

southeast property wiz be more and more

MOUNT PLEASANT HEIGHTS.
No Longer a Deer Park, but Beauti-
full Addition to Northwest,

Mount Pleasant Heights subdivision has
been placed under the management OF Rob-
ert E. Heater to conform to the permanent
plan of the city. In talking to a Star re-
porter Mr.. Heater says that the streets
nave been graded, granolithic sidewalks
laid, shade trees planted. etc. It has been
the policy. he says, to preserve as near as
practicable the natural lay of the ground,
as well as to retain the stately forest shade
trees, which makes the SUBDIVISION one of
the beauty spots OF the city.
The location Is declared to be high and
healthful- The subdivision lies on high
plateau about two squares north of
"old Mount Pleasant" overlooking 10th
street. Rock Creek Park and the city. Its
great elevation guarantees pure air, cool
nights in the summer as well as a most
healthful location for a home.
While this property was placed on the
market only short time ago, the record
er of deeds office shows that nearly all the
lots have been sold This illustrates more
than words the confidence the public have
in this growing section of the northwest.
This Is one of the Fulton R. Gordon prop
critics. Mr. Gordon purchased this tract
from Mr.. Charles c. Glover president of
the Riggs National Bank. 1t was the
largest suburban deal recorded during the
year.

IN EASTERN SECTION.
Growth in the Business of Capitol
Hill


Mr.. ]. c. Weldon says that since the
passage of an act of Congress locating the
new union station on Capitol Hill there has
been steady increase in the demand for
both investment and residence properties
in the eastern section of the city. This is
proved by the growth in our business from
year to year. resulting in last years bust
ness being the most prosperous of our ex-
istence. This year has opened up well, for
we have done twice the business during the
past three months that we did in the CORE
spending months of 1905. We have this
week closed contracts with several builders
building enterprises, and have other appli-
cations under consideration. On the whole
the outlook this year is very promising to
US.
Mr.. Robert n. Harper. president of the
American National Bank, will soon begin
the erection of modern four-story apart
ment house at the corner Of 9Th and r
streets northeast. which will contain six
teen apartments of four or five rooms and
through us the adjoining property on E
street, with a view OF enlarging his build
ing in the future.
Mr.. John A. Wynkoop has purchased the
ground and has plans prepared for sys-
tenn of fiat buildings on f street northeast,
near 9Th. These buildings will accommo-
date fourteen families, and be fitted with
upon which he has recently obtained a pat
ent. Several other original convenienceS
will be installed for the tenants.
1t is a recognized fact that In no part Of
the city is there such a strong demand for
investment and moderate priced residences.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-04-08

by the residents. While this improvement
has long been agffated. it Is still untouched,
and should the rate of building East
Capitol street and Pennsylvania avenue
southeast in the past two years keep up
for the next FIVE years. as Is confidently ex-
pected, the limit Of expansion In that direc-
ton VIII have been reached. For the
proper growth OF the city, therefore. ac-
cording to many. 1t Is necessary that the
fats along the Eastern branch should tie re-
claimed.
While there Is a difference OF opinion
among the real estate men as to the volume
of sales and the building of homes In the
southeast during the current year, 1T is gen
orally agreed that the year has started
with the brightest prospects. Inquiries as
to prices and the sales for the first three
months of the year show up well with those
for the same months last year, and prices
have advanced materially.
In speaking Of these prospects, one deal
er remarked: I'VE. look for the present sea-
son to be the best we have ever had, and,
Judging from the number of sales made and
In prospect, we can safely say that 1906 will
be our banner year"

Hillbrook offers preeminent advantages to
the seeker of a home site or to the real
estate investor. For the employed In the
CITY desiring comfortable, residence in the
suburbs It's advantages seem unsurpassed.
Its sloping topography affords numberless
scenic views OF the distant Virginia wooded
hills and the meandering Potomac TO give
beauty to the dweliers alb ode; but, while
his home is so yerdantly environed, his
employment in the city IS only few min

Two electric lines give frequent and rapid
service for one fare to all parts of the city.
There is also steam car service, public
school, churches. free mail delivery and
adjacent, many beautiful cottages; thus
Hillbrook claims twofold attractions and
inducements in the possession Of city con-
veniences in the midst of rustic surround

terms for the purchase of lots and the erec-
