Real estate development In Westheld has been

in the nature Of BOOM but n steady. consistent
growth. The lay OF the land, the towns proximity
to New York, combined with fine reilroad and
trolley service, make 1t attractive suburban

fast enough to supply the demand
The population of Westheld in 1905 showed a total
of 500: to-day IT is $500. There are forty
houses building all of which will be tenanted as
completed.
Local agents declare that the demand for houses
has increased. Property values remain staple In
the last years the drift Of population has been
toward the easterly section of the town. This
property is under development by the Westheld
Real Estate Company. The company bought the
original tract of five acres, and has steadily
improving the property ever since. 1t has laid
several miles of sewers macadam roads and side
