BUILDING RESTRICTIONS
ATTRACT HOME-BUILDERS



Several Deals Closed.
Attracted by the unique plan on
which Judson Broadway has laid out
the Monterey and Richton-ave. sub
division In Highland Park. buyers and
inQuirers have been plentiful there
during the week that the sale has
been on. Several deals have been
closed right at the start OF the week
and the sale seems to be an assured
success. This subdivision has sew
eral advantages that appeal to the
home-builder, inasmuch as the inves-
tor can be sure that no double houses
or fats will ever be built In that dis.
trict, and. since the restrictions call
for only 40 and 50-foot lots and only
one house TO a lot. everyone Is as
sured that no one else can build on
smaff- tot or nearer the street than
the lot line laid down. This. and the
fact that these avenues are built just
outside the city and are supplied with
sewers, gas, water, cement walks and
shade trees has served to attract at
tentiOn to the district.
