Laurelhurst is building up faster and with a finer class of houses than any other high-grade residence property in Portland. Nearly $1,000,000 was in vested in new homes in Laurelhurst last year, and of the large number erected for sale by builders less than half a dozen remain unsold. Responsible builders have not made such a record anywhere else in Portland, and the indications are that the 1912 market will be even better. Over 200 handsome homes erected in one addition in one year is a remarkable record even for Portland, yet this was achieved in Laurelhurst last year. There is every assurance at this time that fully 400 new homes will be built in the addition this year. This enormous building activity will greatly increase values in the tract. Compare prices in Laurelhurst with those in other high-grade residence additions and you will find that Laurelhurst is from 25 to 50 per cent lower in price.
