DRAWING PLANS
FOR A MODERN
APARTMENT. HERE
STRUCTURE PROPOSED WOULD
COST BETWEEN s22,5oo AND
$4,000.
WOULD FILL LONG FELT DEMAND
Vacant Houses Do Not Exist and Real
ty Agents Have Problem Finding
Homes for the Many Would Be
Renters.

Plans are being matured for the
| erection in Columbia at an early date
of modern apartment house.. There
has been much discussion in recent
times of the need for an apartment
house, and all are agreed on this score.
but this time those behind the project
have had plans made and estimates of
cost and are now figuring on loca-
tion. A number of places are in view
upon which to construct the house
and this matter settled it is probable
that construction will begin at an
early date.
The plans now under consideration
provide for the construction of a
small apartment to cost in the neigh
borhood of $22,500 to $4,000 and
would provide apartments for a num-
ber of families. 1t is proposed to give
the house every convenience provided
in the most modern apartment houses
in the cities. There would be apart
ments Of different sizes, from three to
six rooms each.
Vacant houses in Columbia at this
time do not exist. A representative
of The Herald heard two we'll known
real estate and rental agents tell
woman from Nashville who expects to
make her home here, that they did
not know of a single vacant house
that would meet her needs to be had
in the city. Owing to the exigencies
of war there have been no building
operations during the past eighteen
months of any consequence and with
the population of the city being con-
stantly augmented the = problem of
housing the people who want to come
to Columbia is growing more acute all
the time.
Several agents have stated that once
constructed the proposed apartment
house would have no trouble whatever
in finding tenants and in keeping ten
ants all the time. That it would
prove profitable investment well in
formed real estate agents do not
doubt.
