/ The announcement that three stories
are to be added to the Mutual Assur-
ance Societys great office building, at
Ninth and Main, IS a tribute to the
growth and progress of Richmond.
When the building was erected there
were many who wondered" II 1t would
fer several years to come find tenants
for all. It's space. We doubt II the
owners themselves entertained a more
sanguine view. But the building is
entirely occupied, and there Is already
such a pressing demand for space that
1t must be enlarged.
Incidents like this impress the fact
that few thermometers realize the Won
drous growth of the city within the
past few years. We have had an un-
precedented building boom in the bust
ness districts and the residential dis
tricts, and there are few houses for.
rent; and still the cry is for more,
houses.
In ten years we have built new city.
in Lee District. and yet the houses in
the old district, as well as in the new,
are practically all occupied. 1t is a
great record.
Who Is there now TO say that we took
in too much land when we extended
the city limits?
