HOME BUILDING BRISK

Apartment Development Adds
Materially to Figures.

Residential building in metropolitan

pace, according to figures released to-
day by Rufus S. LuSk, publisher OF
the Washington Businnes Review. Oc-
tober, 1887. showed a slight increase
over the same month for 1886, princi-
pally due to the large volume of apart
ment construction outside of Washing
ton.
A significant development of resi-
dental construction in this area since
the present building boom started in
the early part of 1885 is the decreasing
importance of construction within the
city itself, Up until the 3Os, there
was practically no apartment construc-
ton in the counties. During the last
three years 1852 apartment units have
been erected in Maryland and Vir-
glnia. House construction is more and
more going into the counties; during
the last two years about Is per cent
more houses have been erected in the

A tremendous pickup in building

Whether it will begin within a few

very questionable. But it will come.
In SO far as the current business
recession creates new uncertainty,
building will be deferred, for a new
house is a definitely deferrable pur-
chase. But in SO far as the current
recession brings about lower material
prices and slows up labors general
