DR.. Hartland Law will have, when it

old English cottage.

Howell, who are the exclusive agents
for this property, in speaking about
the terrace remarked:
DIR. Law will have, perhaps, the
only truly old English cottage in the
city, while the residence of Winfield
S. Davis, which will be completed in
about so days, is a half timbered one,
and somewhat of the English design,
and is also being constructed under the
supervision OF Macdonald & Applegarth.
Another very attractive home recently
completed IN the terrace is that of
Burrell G. White.
Several other residences will be
constructed in the near future, we are
informed. There are only about 90 lots

Want HOMES WITH
FINE MARINE VIEWS
Desire of Builders Is Shown by
Quick Sales in Many
Locations

A feature of the real estate market
nand for high class residential prop
erty. 1t will be remembered that right
after the fire 1t was noted in these
columns that a notable change had
come over the purchasers of home
sites, and that there were more peo-
pie seeking locations whence fine ma
rine views could be obtained than at
any other time in the history of the
city.
This resulted in the rapid disposal
of lots in desirable tracts, as was
shown in Bakers beach, where sales
were made and remade and always at
sharp advance. Lots have sold
readily along Pacific avenue, Broadway
and Vallejo, and this has extended to
Presidio heights and to Preside ter
race, where there has been considerable
building of fine houses.
marked increase in building is
shown in Union street in the better
class of flats, from Stockton street to
the Preside.
Flats are being built in Vallejo
street along the line of the Union
street railroad This squirt in build
ing in this district is due to the better
car facilities, and as result good
business quarter has been established
with fine stores carrying every line
of goods.
Building, too, is going on north of
Union street, and recent purchases
show that property is slowly rising
in value along this portion of the
water front, but mostly in small flats
and houses.

MARKET STREET
BEING RESTORED
City's Main Thoroughfare Is
Fast Resnming Normal
Appearance

Market street is beginning to re-
sumo its normal appearance. for with
the taking away of the network of
boards in front of the Phelan building
and also the preparation to do the same
thing at the Palace, the old promenade
which was the most largely patronized
in the city will be restored.
1t is understood that there has been
an eager demand for stores in the new
Palace, and one transportation company
is said to have signed a lease for offices
which will be among the handsomest
in San Francisco.
There will be little change in the
aspect of the north side of Market
street from Grant avenue to Stockton
street, with the exception of the Roos
store on the corner of Market and
Stockton, for most of the old clients
of the Phelan building are renting
stores in their old locations.
The agent of the building, r. d. Nc
E1roy, announces that the Phelan build
ing received tenants on the store floor
last Tuesday and that half of the stores
are ready and rented. while the others
are nearing completion. Many of the
old tenants have returned. George

HOMES BUILT IN
HAYWARD PARK
Rapid Improvement in Popular
Tract in San Mateo
County

No suburban property has gone more
rapidly ahead than Hayward park, in
San Mateo, and scarcely week passes
that new houses are not commenced,
and the tract promises to be one of the
most charming residence sites near
San Francisco.
At a recent meeting of the owners
of Hayward park reports were received
of the final completion of contracts re-
Gently let for the Improvement and de-
velopment of the magnificent property,
which, with the Peninsula hotel, which
1t ad1oins once formed the estate of
the late Alyinza Hayward.
Baldwin & Howell, who are the
agents Of this property, say that the
130 acre tract formerly the racetrack
and pasture of the Hayward homestead.
lying Immediately south OF the hotel
and bordered by the county road and
reaching to the railroad right of way,
has in two years been transformed into
a residence park of $50 beautiful lots,
where many fine bungalows have al
ready been built, and many more are
in contemplation. About 800 lots have
been sold and there now remain 15O to
be disposed of.
1t has been the policy of the owners
not to offer any lots until all Of the
WOrk promised mad DeeQ ACTUALLY uOuo.
This last section of the property has
been reserved until the last in order
that this condition should apply.
The announcement of Baldwin &
Howell that all prices of lots remain
ing unsold October l, A90S, would be
increased will doubtless attract many
buyers to the property during this
month.
AS an example of ideal suburban
property it would be difficult to find a
rival of Hayward park. Nearly $780,
900 has been spent since the first offer
ing of the tract in street grading and
macadamizing, laying sidewalks, eurbs,
water pipes, sewer pipes, gas mains,
the erection of electric light poles and
wires and the planting of palms and
shade trees. The large number of pur-
chasers among the residents OF San
Mateo, who have been waiting many
years for the subdivision of the land,
is the best evidence of it's value. The
success which has attended this enter
prise will doubtless cause several other
large tracts in the immediate vicinity of
Hayward park to be placed on the mar
ket in the near future.

MANY Home Seekers

Following close upon the successful
sale of the Richmond block, bounded by

most attractive residences in the whole
Richmond district The block con-
tains As lots, five having been sold
out of the same several years ago.
This sale will undoubtedly attract
the attention of many builders and
home seekers, who find it more diff
cult every day to procure choice lots
for flats and residences in the Rich
mond district as this section OF the
city has gone ahead with leaps and
bounds during the last two years and
the population has more than doubled.
1t is an interesting fact that buyers of
lots bounded by Lake and California,
Seventh and Eight avenues have re-
ceived offers as high as $3.50 and 5000
a. lot in excess of the prices paid by
them during the sale of this block a
week or SO ago.

Greater in August Than

Medium priced real property was
more in demand among the local in
yestors during August than in several
past months, according to the San Fran
cisco Real Estate Circular for the cur
rent month, just issued by Thomas Ma
gee & Sons. The total sales for the
month were $50, involving an aggregate
value of SLIPS, ,542. and while the total
consideration is not SO f1attering in it
self. when 1T is considered, the Circu-
lar states, that the majority OF the
sales were of property. of low value,
the showing is commendable. No sale
larger than $4,000 was recorded.
The Circular continuess
Mortgage money is easier and more
plentiful. Nearly all of our savings
banks are lending in small amounts,
and many loans have been granted in
the last 80 days ranging In amount
from $1,000 to $500. Loans in large
amounts have been placed through sev-
eraf of our trust companies, in some
cases representing eastern money and
in others representing local money.
MANY MORTGAGES RECORDED
During the month of August $40
mortgages and deeds of trust were re-
corded against San Francisco real es-
tate for the unusually large total of
$6,SSS,529. During the same period 397
releases of mortgages and reconyey-
ances of deeds of trust were recorded,
the amount of which has not been OBJ
tatnable from the recorders Office since
the fire. The largest foam was repre-
sented by an issue of bonds secured by
deed of trust from the Palace hotel
company to the Mercantile trust COM
pany on the new Palace hotel building
and lot, 275 by 346, for total Of $4,000
080. These bonds run for 20 years and
bear 6 per cent interest, and were sub
scribed for in various amounts by sew
eral of the large life insurance COM
panies of New York, as follows: Mu-
tual life insurance company of New

SAVINGS BANKS AID
Credit is given the savings banks of
the city for the way they have aided
in the reconstruction work of the city
and for their ability to stand the draip
on deposits subsequent to the fire and
more recently during the financial
troubles.
1T is believed that never again will
they be subject TO such a double strain
on their ability to pay out cash." the
paper says.
Concerning building operations the
Circular says:

total of $2.5s7. .11o. divided as follows:
Brick, s1,427,39e; frame. s1.e82,556; al

'The total amount of building con-
tracts entered into since the fire amount
to s107,55S,577. AS nearly all buildings
erected have cost over 10 per cent more
than the original contract price, it is
estimated that the total value of build
ings erected since the fire amounts to
not less than s11S.Oeo 600. Building
permits for total of $113i1t2,947 were
