The Real Estate Record and Guide says in its
last issue regarding the Long Island situation in
part follows:
Last week was an exceedingly good one through
out Brooklyn. Queens Borough and Long Island
beyond the city limits. In spite Of transit eondi-
tons that would prove a handicap 20 any other
community OF extensive area, Brooklyn attracts
new residents 20 IL weekly. There are more homes
being built within IT'S borders than in any other
borough of the metropolis The best evidence OF
the stability OF Brooklyn real estate Is the fact
that builders in many Of the outlying sections No
longer find Il profitable % build detached houses.
but are building houses IN rows. as rule instead.
This proves conclusively that land values have
assembled TO the level where greater economy Of
land In house building operations is a necessity.
II Is interesting to recall this juncture. the
cant land movement IN Brooklyn a decade ago,
when property in Gravesend. Blythebourns, and
even certain parts OF Flatbush. was selling az from
$50 70 500 a city Iot with buyers in many in
stances somewhat dubious as 70 whether there
would be any increment during their lifetime.
W nat large number there are now who op-
timists when before they were pesslnnists- II Is
safe 20 say that even swamp lands IN Brooklyn
will eventually sell al regular city lot prices.
