GLEN PARK PROPERTIES
ATTRACT MUCH INTEREST
Large Sums Spent on Improve
ments by CrOcker Estate

There has been great activity in
Glen park properties of late. Many
sales are reported by Arthur @. Dun
can. who specializes on property in this
district. Duncan attributes many
sales to the following reasons:
Glen park has fine scenery and it is
in the city of San Francisco. There is
a strong desire on the part OF many
Francisco. but those residing in the in
terror as well, to acquire San Fran
cisco real estate. These people have
faith in the growth of San Francisco
and realize that it is advisable to buy
property in the path of a city's growth.
The coming Panama-Pacific eXposi-
tion has awakened great interest
among CalifOrnians in general, and
the best available site is near Glen
park many people consider ii wise to
buy now to reap the profit that will
come in the increase OF the property
brought about by the worlds fair.
The worlds fair will bring to this
city thousands of artisans. Homes will
be in demand. particularly where these
mechanics can be near their place OF
work Another strong feature is the
fact that the CrockeT estate company
has spent about 100000 on improve
ments in their Glen park properties.
The fact that a great many homes
have already been built around Glen
park has fostered faith in the locality.
The man of moderate means sees the
wisdom quickly of acquiring real es-
tate in big city when he can buy as
low as 5000 a lot.

association originally asked the post
office department to increase the num-
ber OF deliveries in the Missions busi-
ness section, the routes of letter car
riers were revised and additional men
added TO the force of the Mission
branch postoff1ce. Since then the num-
ber of stores and mercantile plants has
increased to such an extent that a re-
quest will be made that the postal au-
thorities increase the number of dea
liveries in the business section south of
Army street to three daily, instead of
two, a S at present A request will
also be made that four deliveries shall
be made in the busy portions of the
district. especially the retail section.
So favorable has been the impression
made on the residents of the San Bruno
Bay View, Visitacion and Bay Shore
districts by the suggestion and report
of the Mission promotion association s
fire protection committee to lay an
eight inch main in Wilde and San
Bruno avenues, with branch mains and
IL hydrants, that it has received gen
eral Endorsement throughout these sec
tfons. The proposed plan will only
cost what is necessary to construct two

increase the supply of water for do

The Merchants association has Pc
titioned the board of public works to
recommend to supervisors that the
grades in Main street between Folsom
and Bryant be changed and lowered
and that the street be cut down to
the new grade. This follows up the
associations previous action in regard
to cutting down the Beale street grade,
so IS to furnish thoroughfares on easy
southern water front.
Proceedings have been practically
completed on the Beaie street grade.
which the supervisors have ordered
cut down. and the city engineer is now
completing the plans for a bridge over
Beale street at its intersection with
Harrison street.
The lowering of the grade in Main
street will complete the opening up of
thoroughfares through this district
and will enable the property owners
to grade their property down and thus
put it in condition for use by indus
trial establishments, for which this
district is particularly well suited.
BRIDGE FOR RINCON HILL
1t is proposed to lower the grade
in Main street at its intersection with
Harrison street from the present grade
of 90 feet to base. The grade in Har-
rison street at it's intersection with
Beale street will remain practically as
a present. and there will be construct
ed here a steel or concrete bridge over
Beale street, SO that Harrison street
will furnish a thoroughfa-e, as at pres
ent, for the people on the top OF Rineon
hill who travel to and from the water
front.
This matter of changing the grade in
Main street was not taken UP by the as
sociation at the time it took up the Beale
street grade change, for the reason
that 1t was not certain that the prop
erty owners along Main street would
favor changing the grade and pay their
share of the cost of the work. The
association has now received assur
ances from more than a majority of the
property owners there that they will
not protest if the work is ordered
The building of the new sea wall
along the water front in that locality
affords an unusual opportunity for
having Main street lowered at low
cost, as the material removed from
the street will have to be transported
only a few blocks.
NEED TO HASTEN WORK
IT is necessary. however, that this
possible In order to take advantage
of this nearby dump before 1T is filled
in with other material
The petition filed before the super
visors asked that the following work
shall be performed:
1. That the grades in Main street
from Folsom to Bryant be changed
and established as follows:
In Main street at the crossing of
Folsom at FIVE feet tthe same being
the present official grade).
In Main street at the crossing of
Harrison be lowered 90 feet and
established at base for Main, and
the crossing of Harrison be raised

lished at % feet 8 inches for. Har.-

In Main street at the crossing OF

tablished at base.
In Main street between Folsom

.,ents between the grade elevation

the cost of said sewers to be borne
by the city and county OF san
Francisco.
5. That the southwest end or
line of Harrison street at the Main
street crossing be connected with
the northeast end or line of Har-
rison at the Main street crossing
with suitable steel or concrete
bridge 35 feet in width and capable
of accommodating all travel on
Harrison street between the upper
part of Rincon hill and the water
ways connecting said bridge with
the Main street sidewalks: said
bridge to conform to the changed
official grade of Harrison street at
tnc crossing OF MAIN SlTCCt 90
above designated or as may be rec
commended by the city engineer.
4. That the actual cost of grad
ing and otherwise improving said
street. including the construction
of the aforesaid bridge at Harrison
street crossing. be assessed against
the property in the district that
will be benefited by said changes OF
grade and improvements made on
said street. except that of sewering
and except that of grading and
otherwise improving that portion
of said street in front of the United
States property at the northwest
corner of Main and Harrison
streets the cost of which, together
with that of sewering. it is recon-
mended. be borne by the city and
county.
The association suggested the grade
that seemed desirable, unless, in tn
Judgment of the city engineer, other
would be better for the purpose.
