MAKES BIG SALES
'OUTWOODWARD-AVE.
Land Company Opens Two Sub
divisions and DispOses of
Entire Frontage

Two new subdivisions, known as
the Woodward Homes and Woodward
Farms additions, We're opened by the
Nicholson Land Co.. Sunday, in the
North Woodward district, which is be-
ing developed by them, and In the two
days Of Saturday and Sunday all the
frontage OF each on Woodward-ave
was sold.
According TO a member or the firm
its work in that section represents the
largest transaction in suburban prop
erty ever recorded in real estate his
tory. The company came to Detroit
about d year ago and bought 500 acres
Oh North Woodward-ave. for the pur-
pose OF plating and developing it.
Four subdivisions were opened last
year and SO lots sold In the first Of
these, known as the State Fair subdi-
vision No. the company claims 10
have made record for sales by dis
posing OF 527 sites In two days.
In addition to the cutting OF the
land into lots. many improvements
have been made. part OF which con
sist in the building OF Is miles OF ce-
nient sidewalk. Seventysix small
farms have been plated.
The four first divisions contained
800 acres and 1000 lots. The Ham
ilton Park subdivision, which is not
on Woodward-ave., was disposed OF
largely by state sales negotiated
through two or three buyers repre-
senting clubs of prospective buyers
from the different smaller cities OF
the state. The men who are promot-
ing the development assert that the
land Is being taken up largely by per.
sons who intend TO make their homes
there.
The boom they say, is continuing
this year. AS shown In 275 sales up 10
date. This is accounted for by the
general drift OF population in that di.
rCction.
