New Dwelling House: Being Erect.
Cd on the East Side. How
jamestown Grows.

No one portion of the city has a
monopoly in building improvements
this year. And the.lots in the.eastern
part of the city which have hereto
fore been the slowest to be improved,
are now having new cottages built
upon them along numerous streets.
A few years ago R. E. Wallace,
with shrewd foresight began to pur-
chase a mum ber of vacant lots in this
part of the city and recently COM
menced the sale of the same and call
ing attention to the locality as
spot for homes for Jamestown resi-
dents.
Quite a number of sales of lots
have already been made and it is
only matter Of time" hen others will
invest and build homes for them
selves. The property at present is
cheap and is bound to increase in
value as the city grows. Good build
ing lots can be had along some of the
best located streets for from Sl0O to
$3.50 and upward. In the..near future
modern improvement nts in the way of
sewer and water..and gas will also be
extended into that part of.thescity
comprised in McGinnis' End addi-
tion, Jones and Vennum's addition
and Curtin's addition.
From tine ra pid manner in which
new cottages are being built, both
last year and this year it will not be
long before vacant.lots in the eastern
part of the city will be occupied
with homes of thrifty andsprosperous
Jamestownites.
Among the new houses now being
erected are a story and a half resi-
uence of cement blocks, being
b0ilt by Henry Abel, on Penn Ave.
The house has full basement of
cement walls 'with.a' Shelf around the
same, and the house will contain
seven rooms. 1t stands on Ghe high
ground and commands an excellent
view of the city and.will cost over
$780,

building small house which will be
a neat and pleasant little home.
