GOSSIP ABOUT
REAL ESTATE
Market Moving Despite the
Approach Of Winter.

e estate was by no means
shocked over the election of Wood
row Wilson, but, just the same, the
agents halted in their progressive
movements to cast a vote for the
Democratic nominee-so they say
now-and, also, watch the interest
ing returns from the other forty
seven states. Bad weather set in on
Thursday, too, and gave every indi-
cation that it would continue until
the wind shifts to another quarter.
The handlers of suburban property,
who have not as yet declared a halt
In the fall operations, are earnestly
wishing for a clear weekend, which
means a stream of hundreds of dol
lars into their Golfers.
No sale of any Importance in local
improved reai estate circles has been
recorded, although there has been
every indication, the dealers say, in
the activity of the market. The ap-
plications for home sites in Perth
Amboy continue unlimited, if one
desires to accept the declaration OF
properties to offer. Other agents,
interested in suburban tracts, speak
in high terms OF the advantages Of
fered at this time to persons desiring
home sites In the immediate vicinity
of Perth Amboy, and the continue
ton Of interest taken in the outside
world, especially among the class
that desires to secure homes In
country districts, In what can be
truthfully termed suburban property
in Greater Perth Amboy.

OPERATIONS IN .
BUILDING LINE
Contracts Being Completed
Start on Many Others.

Weather conditions coupled with
activity in real estate circles seem
to be responsible for a fall building
boom which appears to have sprung
up in this city. Architects declare
they are busy at work making plans
for both commercial and residential
structures, but as yet are not in a
position to divulge details. 1t is
known that plans are under way for
two theatrical structures. which it
is intended to erect in Smith street.
Estimates are to be received the
early part of next week for a two
story brick building to be erected for
Wedeen and G%reenspan at the south
east corner of Davidson avenue and
Smith street. The plans and specifi-
cations, prepared by the architecture
al firm of Goldberger & Greisen,
have been out among contractors for
more than two weeks. The building
is to contain eight stores on the
ground floor and eight fats above.
1t will be arranged in four double
sections, each to include two stores
and two flats. The structure is to
front $50 feet along Smith street
and extend sixty feet along Davidson
venue
Work is well under way upon the
engineering building and machine
shop under construction for the
Roessler & Hasslacher Chemical
Company on the site of the former
I'VE dock" property In Rector
street.
One of the largest store and office
buildings in the city, known as the
Kant building, is nearing completion.
With desirable weather conditions it
should be ready for occupancy about
January /, next.
