ARLINGTON BUILDING
INCREASE SHOWN
314 Permits for Total of 81, 1877 ;.
1873 Issued in First Five
Months OF Year.

A picture Of the decided increase in
building activity in Arlington County,
Va. is shown in the analysis by G. w.
Clever, secretary of the Alexandria
Arlington Fairfax Real Estate Board.
The secretary reports that in 1888
the total number OF building permits
issued was 336, OF which 165 were
for single family dwellings and the
total amount was s67s,246. In 1884
there were 362 permits issued. of
which 225 were for single family
dwellings, and this amount was ST.
10000. For the first fiYe months of
1895, ending May 81. 3l4 permits were
issued. OF this amount nine were for
apartments totaling ss41 500, and 289
permits, totaling s1,240,450 were for
single dwellings. The grand total of
all permits for the FIRST five months
was $2,s27,ls6.
During the month Of April alone the
permits Issued represented an invest
ment Of sl,2ls.l85. or an amount
greater than that represented by the
total for all of 1894.
Clever also stated that there s a
consistent demand for the new homes
being built and that realtors and
builders are reporting prompt and
satisfactory sales for their new home
offerings.

Besides producing an appreciable

minimizes the number of applica-
