North Bench Land
Values Must Grow
Closest-in of all new resi-
dence sections provides
just what most home-seek-
ers want.

| Where to buy Il home Is Il question
| which depends for its answer much
! on the personality Of the man who Is
| doing the selecting. Ono man may
| want bench land: another level coun-
try; third glories in the view of the
valley; a fourth wants to be near his
business: q fifth likes something np-
preaching the joys of country life.
some sites will satisfy few of these
demands; while others are so fortuna
ate as to have all characteristics
which most homc-buycrs seek.
But there are some features which
are desirable In all properties. and
with all buyers: and one OF these is
the growth in values and the prospect
for its continuance.
Values may be boosted" when the
oyySsors of n locality get the idea that
everybody wants their property and
must have 1t at all costs. In this way
they may reach n point which they
will not surpass for several years.
This may be true of almost any part
of q city. or even of whole city.
But 1t Is more common in the con-
versation of unimproved property In
to city lots. 1t Is not a usual char
actcristic of thiclsly-settlcd neigh
bOrhood.
Again the trend of the city's growth
is something that affects values.
Cities, as rule. tend to grow In one
or two directions only. The owner
Of property In the path Of that growth
is fortunate. Its value Will continue
to grow indefinitely.
NORTH BENCH FILLS BILL.
In al; these respects the owners OF
property on the north bench In Salt
Lake City are fortunate. 1t has all
the advantages of location most gen
orally sought---good situation, 'magnt-
ficent view, above the smoke of the.
city. close to the business district,
and SO on.
Further. while there has been
steady growth in values in that region
in the past few years, the values have
not been boosted. The ownership is
widely distributed, with the result
that the law of supply and demand
has applied in the past. 1t VIII con-
tinue to do so in the future.
1t follows then. that the values Oh
the land In that region Will continue
to be governed by the same law. !heir
growth depends on the growth OF the
city in that direction.
And the city surely is growing IN
that direction. A street car ride on
ihe sixth avenue or the Ninth avenue
iincs is enough TO convince the most
skeptical. The records OF pubic I'M
provcments show 1t. The city mas
recognized the needs of the section ~
authorizing work on the new high
line water main and by many otneF
improvements.
CLOSE TO BUSINESS DISTRICT.
1t IS the closest-in OF all the new
residence sections. and Is nearer 10
the city Than most of the OLD ones.
Therefore values must grow theEe.
