important Announcement that Down town Building will Be Finished

Expressing his confidence in Phoenix in dollars and cents George H. N. Luhrs announced yesterday that he would complete the building at the northwest corner of Central Avenue and Madison street commenced two years ago. Six ty thousand dollars has already been placed in the structure and at least
 Sce. coo. co more will be expended and very possibly double that sum. Before the work of finishing the two stories is begun if the tenants who lease the building require more space two or three more stories will be considered by Mir. Luhrs. The building occupies two lots lO0x1371s and the lower floor is at present leased to the N. Porter Saddle and Harness Company. Wheth- CT the building would house a mer- cautile establishment or be used for offices. Mir. Luhrs could not state yes terday the details having not yet been decided The basement, which is un- der the whole building as well as the first floor are completed and by early autumn the entire building will be
 ready for occupancy.
 Tt was not that I lost faith in Phoe- nix that l halted the work on the building two years ago" said MT. Luhrs in discussing his plans. "The outlook for renting a large place of this kind did not look good at that time because I felt that there would be so many places for rent after prohibition went into effect There was no chance for more buildings. Conditions have been changing rapidly and the activity of ;he past winter warrants our talk ing this proposition.

In long distance telephone mes
