Bank 20 Move.
The Rio Grande Valley Bank and
Trust company owns the Electric
building now occupied by the COM
pany and it is understood that during
the early part of 1917 the bank will
take over the structure, especially the
lower floor and part of the second
floor. now used by the FL PasO Elec-
trio company. It is the plan Of the
bank officials. it is understood. to give
up the lease now held on the first floor
Of the Two Republics building and
move the bank into its own building
at Stanton and san Antonio.
The Crosby property has frontage
of so feet on Myrtle avenue and extends
backward to an alley between Myrtle
and Texas. a distance of 100 feet The
present building was only recently
erected and is of red brick.
Five Story Loft Structure.
Another big building to rise in the
business section during the present
year. if the plans of II. B. Stevens and
8. Aronsteiu are consummated. Is the
erection of a five story loft building
at the corner Of Santa Fe and San
Francisco streets. This site is 121 by
I25 feet and is one Of the most desir-
able locations in the business section.
Just what the structure will be used
for has not been determined, but the
inference is that the lower part wilf
be for stores and the upper part for
storage purposes
