FINAL DEED MADE
Of THOMPSON LAND
Massachusetts, Ave. Heights
Company to Begin
Improvements.

Financial arrangements for handling
the 201-acre Thompson tract, on Massa-
chuSetts avenue around Rock creek,
have been completed by the deciding OF
various holdings to one company, to be
known as the Massachusetts, Avenue
Heights Company. Charles J. Bell and
Amos H. Plumb have been working for
about six months to complete the ar
rangements, and the improvement of
the property by subdivision will now
proceed rapidly.
One of the largest contracts for sub
division improvement ever made in the
District has been let to E. A. Gummel
It is estimated that not less than $75O. 900
will be expended under this contrac:
to make an unimproved tract of
land over into a city section of 495 lots,
will be erected.
Deeds of Transfer.
Deeds of transfer were placed on rec
ord yesterday afternoon. By these
papers the Massachusetts Avenue
Heights Company takes title to the sew
eral holdings, which were somewhat in
volved, the owners of the property be-
ing the members of the company, and
the American Security and Trust CON-
pany becomes trustee for the company
in place of Charrss ]. Bell and Amos
H. Plumb, who have acted as trustees
for the other. owners interested. OF
course, the transaction in no way can
be considered as a sale of local realty.
The company and the trustees have
placed the selling of the lots in the
hands of Thomas J. Fisher & Co., Inc,
who expect to have their selling and ad-
vertising campaign organized so as to
be able to put lots on the market by the
1st of April.
General Plan Is Unique.
The Surveyors Office of the District
has not yet completed the plans of the
subdivision, but the general plan upon
which they are working is unique for
Washington. Out of the whole 2J7 acres
in the tract it is expected there will
remain after the dedication back to the
District for streets and alleys, only a
net 144 acres or about 100000 square
feet of ground to be sold. The plans
call for only 1876 lots, hut these range in
size from the ordinary fifty-foot-front
residence lot up to quarter-acre to
seven-acre plots or villa sites.
1t Is understood an average of 75
cents square foot will be obtained for
the improved property, or a total of
$4,50Q00O. The western boundary of the
tract is Wisconsin avenue, while on the
north is Cathedral street and Woodley
lane. =.

BUSY CORNER GIVES
BUILDING CONTRAST
Old University Coming
Down as Southern Struc-
ture Goes Up.

A contrast in building is to be seen
today on the southeast and northeast
corners of H and Fifteenth streets
northwest. A large force of workmen
is engaged In pulling down the old
building of George Washington Uni
versity, on the southeast corner, and
the adjoining building of the law school
to make way for Samuel w. Wood
wards million-dollar office building,
while just across the street the cornice
and roof of the new Southern building
are being finished.
The two building operations make
what is probably the largest private
building work Washington has ever seen
on practically one site.
Remarkable progress has been made
in razing the old university buildings
and 1t will be but few days before
they have entirely disappeared and the
work of erecting the new office building
started.
When this work is finished the cor
ners of II and Fifteenth streets will be
the most expensively improved in the
city. The new Woodward building will
be similar in appearance to the South
ern building. Harding & Upman. ar
chitects, have designed a building, the
ground plan of which is practically the
same The Southern plan is in the
form of a double L, while the Wood
ward building takes the shape of the
letter E. The open side of the letter
faces Fifteenth street, in the case of
the Southern building, while the open
side in the other is designed to front
on H street.

ington into an important center. The
improvement of these corners is now
fixed, with the Union Trust Company's
building on the southwest corner and
the Shoreham Hotel on the northwest.
Much interest was expressed this
of $65 a square foot had been made for
the Alexander property, in Fourteenth
street between New York avenue and
G street. The realty is on the east side
of the street, and at present the only
improvements are three one-story stores
of practically no value, and which bring
in a small income compared with the
value of the real estate 1t is under
stood that some of the heirs are agree
able to letting the property go at the
figure offered. A modern store building
Is planned, if the ground be acquired.
Twenty-eight dollars a square foot
was paid for the property at the north
west corner of L and Fourteenth street
this week in the transfer of the four
story stone apartment building there.
Charles P. williams sold 1t for $4,000 to
R. T. Warwick. The building contains
a store on the first floor and apartments
upon the upper three floors. 1t fronts
twenty-five feet on L street and ninety
eight on Fourteenth.
On the southeast corner is the church
which President Taft attends, All Souls.
This property is now on the market at
s10S0 a square foot. There are nearly
10000 square feet in tltC lot.
