BUSINESS CROWDS
OUT RESIDENCES
Six Houses Sold to Be Made
Into Stores and
Offices.

The movement to convert old down
town residences into business build
| ings for store and office purposes has
proceeded unabated during the past
week.
Six pieces of property. which as resi-
dences have withstood the advance
of business. have been sold to invest
ors who will at once. transform them
into business properties.
Those that are soon to disappear are
the old residence of former Secretary
of State John w. Foster. at 1405 l
street; three three-story residences
on the south side of New York av-
enue between Ninth and Tenth streets,
and the two four-story residences at
1872 and 1914 II street, all in the
downtown northwest section.
The Foster house was purchased by
Ben B. Bradford at SIS a square foot.
1t is located just around the corner
from his Bradford building on Four
teenth street and nearly adjoins it in
the rear. Mr.. Bradford will spend
about $4,000 in making over the place.
which is now used as an annex to the
NOrmandie Hotel, into a modern busi-
ness building.
The three New York avenue dwell
tngs which are to be remodeled into
business structures are those at $50.
934. and 936. Charles w. King, ir.,
who recently remodeled the house at
92O, will commence the reconstruction
of the house at $50. NJ. l.. Wolpe sold
that at 934 for $500 a square foot to
an investor who will remodel at once
and the Condor Heating Company
to make over the house at 936 for It's
own business purposes. About 800
square foot was paid for these prop
critics, although last week $500 a
square foot was paid by Percy H.
Russell for the corner property at 9O3
New York avenue.
John f. and Robert Wilkins paid
s26 a square foot for the old four
story houses at 1912 and 1914 H street
northwest and will invest a consider
able additional sum in making mod
ern store and office buildings out Of
them.

Capital Realty Matters
Given the Place of Honor

Washington realty matters are given
the place of honor in the first issue of
the National Realty Journal, a new
monthly magazine published in Chicago
the initial copy of which, the issue for
March, has been received here.
The article is entitled ''Washington-
Wonderful Strides Made in Past Few
Years in Realty and Building" and re-
views the increase of real estate valua-
tlons and of building.
The building operations of Harry
Wardman are favorably commented
upon. The writer refers to them as
the remarkable achievements of a
single individual, who has probably done
more building in the city Of Washington
in the past two years than has been
accomplished by any other man in any
other city of the United States"
The stability of Washington real es-
tate values and their necessary en-
the relation of the city to the country
