ANNOUNCEMENT!

Those who have recently made enquiry regarding lots in LOS OLIVOS will be interested to learn that this tract has been in part replatted. Two new roads have been laid out, permitting us to of for some exceedingly choice corner lots at inside prices. Under the new subdi- vision all lots with the exception of two 5-acre tracts are of two and one half acres each, less roads, These range in price from $125O to $2750 each building restrictions from $35OO to $6OOO.
 The new streets, Coronado road and Monte Vista road, are to be graveled and otherwise improved like Palm Lane, which they parallel. The drive ways will be no wider than is actually necessary, following plans approved by the National Civic Improvement Asso- citation, and will allow for a parking outside of the property lines, in which will be planted palms.
 This highly improved property, but a mile and half from down town, ac- cessible by the city's best roads and electric car line, offers the advantages of fertile soil, old water rights, good do- mestic water, perfect drainage and slightly elevation. It's location on Cen tral Avenue, the beautiful homes al ready built and the restrictions are proof that LOS OLIVOS is, and al- ways will be, the most desirable resi- dence district of Phoenix.
 Terms are favorable and very liberal loans will be made to assist in building.
