Great pressure was brought to bear up
on the owners, Messrs. Grimm, Elliott,
and WATSON to cut up this tract into
home sites so that the people may have
an opportunity to build homes and ex-
pand this beautiful city of River Falls.
The writer, Mr.. N. P. Gerard, of Gerard
& Kimball, Inc, of Minneapolis, who are
large national subdividers and have a
great many subdivisions throughout
the Twin Cities and elsewhere, was so
impressed with the beauty and future
of River Falls that Gerard & Klmbal
took it up themselves to give it their
time and attention to promote the sale
of these beautiful home sites. They can
safely say that there isn't more beau
tiful city of it's size anywhere, either IN
the state of Wisconsin or Minnesota,
and they can conscientiously advise any
one to purchase these beautiful home
sites at Kinnickinnic Park, River Falls.
Messrs. Grimm, Elliott, and WATSON,
who are natives of River Falls, and
known for their honesty and integrity
for hundreds of miles around, guaran-
tee each purchaser that they will make
improvements of graded streets, con-
crete sidewalks, water mains, and VIII
plant trees on this tract.
Most all of these lots are go front and
1907 deep, which is very large lot.
