Main Street Rentals Show
Demand for Business Sites

Main street rentals at the present
time are certain indication of the
great demand for business locations in
Salt Lake and they also furnish the
assurance that. with a hundred or more
siorerooms added TO the available sup
ply, the demand Will in no way be eX-
ceeded. At present, on Main street,
between First South and Fourth South
streets, there are only about three va
cant storcrooms. One OF these, with
frontage of about thirty feet is be-
ing held at $1,000 a month; another with
frontage Of about twenty feet is
held for 5000 month. and the third, in
one Of the large office buildings recently
completed is held at $3.50 a month.
This room has n frontage of only about
twelve feet, although it is wider AT the
rear.
The United Cigar Stores company has
made some remarkably remunerative in
vestments in Main street leases in the
last few months. with the result that
this concern really gets three OF the
most desirable corners on Main street
without cost and possibly makes a few
thousand dollars in addition.
In the case of the Godhe-Pitts cor
ner there is one example: the deal be-
ing substantially as follows: The Unit
ed Cigar Stores company paid $4,000 Il
year for a ten-year lease on the entire
building, agreeing To pay all taxes and
assessments against the property for that
