HAGGIN LOTS IN DEMAND
Judging from the inquiry for cata-
logues. Baldwin & Howell. say that is
lots. constituting the Haggin homesite,
which they are TO sell April %, will not
be nearly enough to supply the demand.
The advanta geous location OF the prop
erty seems to be fully appreciated by
the public. and there is no doubt that
there will be active competition for the
lots. Several builders say they expect
to secure portions of the property for
clients, with the expectation OF build
ing apartment houses. The subdivision
of the property invites this class of
Improvement. Nearly all of the lots
are large enough to permit of the con-
struction of three story apartments
without resorting to the method of
cramping the entrances, which is one
OF the Objectionable features of many
Of the modern apartment houses.
The inside lots in Taylor street are
all 80 feet each, and the corners are
321z. These lots have a depth of 81
feet, extend through to a six foot pas
sageway, which affords a rear entrance
to all of the Taylor street lots The

frontage of 2S feet.
