The San Francisco call., 1910-10-22

Perhaps no subdivision in San Fran
cisco or vicinity. since the big fire, has
attracted the attention of the public as
has West Clay park.
Il is unique in several respects. To
begin with. II is in a district limited by
nature to a small area. Within this
limited space one may acquire a home
site that commands views which would
attract even the satiated globe tourist
Few. IL any. spots boast of marine
view TO compare with it,
Looking across the national pre-
serve OF the Presijio. the first glimpse
is of the world famous Golden gate,
widening out into the Pacific ocean,
with a view OF the breaker beaten
coast as far as the eye can reach.
Across the gate are the Marin county
mountains. and Bakers beach at your
feet curves along the Preside reserva-
ton. Altogether. the natural position
is most fascinating and beautiful.
In preserving this view the Boston
Investment company has set an eS-
ample for future subdivisions that will
have a lasting effect in making San
Francisco attractive. Great care and
expense have been expended in grad
ing. bituminizing, sidewalking, etc.
Telephone and electric lighting wires
have been placed underground, doing
6Wav with unsi ghtly poles. Curved
streets and ornamental entrance gates
are also features that attract.
West Clay park is so arranged in
large lots that each has a view which
can not be "cut off" Building re-
strictions OF $4,000 for strictly resi-
dence purposes insure its character
and make it safe 10 prophesy that for
all time il will be a beauty spot in the
development of San Francisco.
The new residence to be erected on
Corona Heights by Chandler & Bourn
will be a two story and basement
dwelling in the bungalow style. Each
Of its seven rooms will have plenty of
sunshine, and the large basement will
have concrete floor. Special attention
is being given 10 the interior finish,
which viii be artistic and harmonious
throughout. The agents are making
Corona Heights, with its superb views
and convenient location. one of the
most desirable home districts of the
city.
IN THE SUNSET
The main sewer in Lincoln way Oh
street,. the avenue fronting the south
side Of Golden Gate park. to Fortieth
avenue has been completed and the city
engineers concluded that a continuation
OF this sewer from Fortieth avenue
west in the same avenue to intersecr
the main sewer coming north in Forty
eighth avenue at the park would be
most judicious and least expensive. as
the sewa ge would be turned into and
aarried off by one outlet to Bakers
beach.
The board Of public works has adver-
tised and is receiving bids for that very
important and last portion of the bond
sewer. which. when completed, viii
drain that vast area of land south Of
the park. Thenlarge and growing pop.
ulation of the Sunset and Oceansid'
districts is much elated at obtaining
what had been so long sought and was
so much needed.
That particular section in the Sunse'
district west of Twenty-third avenue
and from the park south as far al
Kfrkham (K) street has been enlivenec
in no small degree by the grading and
sewering Of streets and the laying Of
water and gas mains. These improve
ments and the completion of the mair
sewer outlet are the direct cause Of
many fine residences being erected
there.
Sol Getz & Sons have recently sold
many lots in that district.
Mrs J. Wigans. who purchased a loi
lately. has let the contract to build Z
two story residence of II rooms and
bath in the east line of Twenty fourth
avenue, 100 feet south Of Irving IL
street. The contract price is $500.
