1903. REVIEW OF REAL ESTATE MARKET Reopening of Banks Has Had Effect of Completely Re 0 storing Confidence. ;MEA!IS AN ACTIVE SPRING THE ' SUNDAY . OREGON! AN, PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 16, Confirmation of Swift's Intentions to Build Ureal Plant on -Peninsula " Injures r'aith in Portland's ' . Putnro Greatness. 'i No announcement made in years has liad as strengthening effect on the real estate market as that, of' the reopening : of the Merchants National tomorrow and the merger of the Oregon Trust with tha ... German-American Bank. The action of '' William M. Ladd in taking care of the depositors in tlio Title Gxiarantee. coupled with tha resumption of the Merchants and the starting up of the German-American on the new basis, removes the last "tie-up" of funds, resulting ' from the 'squeeze" in November. Real estate operators .have on their " books a, number 'of deals that could not v be closed because buyers had their funds In one or the other of the suspended banks. Now that these can be negotiated, dealers say there is no apparent reason why those deals should not be taken up and carried through... . Hut the moral effect on trade in gen eral in the resumption of the banks is regarded by the real estate men as of the most pronounced sort; for while a- fairly full degree of confidence already had been noticeable in the market, this starting - lip of the banks "simply clinches things," as one dealer puts it. Swift Plan Assured. , Another development of the week that had a marked effect on the real estate market was the settlement of the ques tion of Swift's intentions on the puniu sula. Considerable work "has been done on the site selected by the big paeking- house owners, but no definite information " could be obtained about What their ulti ,'niate plans; embraced. The 'heads of the f concern were here early in the week and positively announced that one of the most extensive stockyards and packing-houses .-. In the country is to occupy the 3000 acres : near the mouth of the Willamelte.. and that work in its construction is to be pushed forward. That decision, naturally. ; was not arrived at hastily, and when the fact became known that representations - sent back to Chicago concerning the site 'were borne out by personal investigation, ' it gave the City of Portland another boost, the extent of which scarcely can be over estimated. ' The investment 'of between J3.000.000 and J4.ou0.000 oil the plant is but a start In the benefit to come to the city, for with :. hundreds, perhaps thousands, of employes eiven work by the projected concern, it " follows that towns will speedily spring up in the vicinity, where the workmen will have homes near tile scene of their em ployment. Movements in that direction have been under way ever since the pack- . ing plant wjis first broached, and already settlements are in evidence along the Vancouver and St-. John lines well down the Peninsula. Other sites have been secured for additional plats and in a very lew months activity is to be expected in building lots in that section. ' In the meantime there is no lack of business in the older platted sites. Buy ing of one or -two lots fpr immediate building, and blocks of five lots und up ward as investment, continues to be re " ported dally by the agents of different tracts. In the additions, from Ports mouth and Piedmont - to Sellwood and Woodstock on the East Side, transfers . are recorded showing a good . healthy movement. On the West Side are sev eral localities waiting completion of . grades and opening of streets before con siderable portions of .hitherto unavail able building sites' will be on the market. Few of these will be' attractive to the builders of .small houses, however,' for land ts too valuable to come within the reach of men of moderate means in most of these localities. Residence districts on the West Side are gradually boing forced back to the . hills by the demands of trade and manufacturing, . and to the southward also business requirements are j making inroads on former residence sec- . tions. Holders of liealty T'irm. As to the condition of 'the market, dealers are still of the opinion that buy ers of inside business realty must come up a peg or two in their ideas of values if they are to secure anything "worth while. Holders are firm in maintaining present value's and dealers to a man re port inability to pick up either building sites or improved downtown pieces ex cept at valuations based on the prices .established in the past six months. Three of the pleading brokers in inside property report orders for lots and quarter blocks at a shade under ruling figures, and about half a dozen deals are pending in volving J125.0UO and over, with but a 'thousand or two between buyers' aud , sellers' figures. This week two of these 'will be closed, in all probability, for.buy fers are now. convinced that holders' fig ures must be met if properties are to be secured, and the pendency is upward just now rather than downward, according to the best informed realty men. February building permits up to yes terday amounted to 193 in number, with estimated valuation of improvements of $305,395. For the- past week permits for building oiKTations of J1000 and over foot .up $141,600, only two reaching five figures. One of these was issued to W. L. Mor gan for an apartment-house, at Kearney and Twenty'second streets, to cost J37.500. In the list is one yf $00. as the estimate , on tho beginning of work cm the Judge , .Kenton building, at Seventh and Ankeny. . Transfers for the week averaged $55,000 a day on tin; amounts recorded. In bolh transfers and permits the Kast Side fur nished over two-thirds of the items. AYork on Country Club. Work Is progressing nicely on the grounds of tho Country Club and Live stock Association. Grading of the track and fills is nea.ring completion, and seed , is to be sown in a few days on the in ' field, where by the middle of Summer a fine turf is expected to develop. Plans for the buildings are about ready and contracts for the erection of the exhibi tion halls and grandstand will be let in a few days, the clubhouse to be built later on. Extensions qJ the streetcar lines to the association track will be ' made In the near future. Rose City Park people are figuring on a line from that suburt), to connect with the East Ankeny -'line, and an extension of the double track Montavllla line Is also said to be work that will be undertaken soon. Quite a number of dwellings are being built in the vicinity of the grounds of the asso ciation. Acreage coQtimirs ' to be In good de mand at stiff figures. A tract of IS .

When this land waa taken up about 50 years ago it was heavily wooded, but is now in a good state of cultivation and will be included in the city, which is rapidly growing in that direction. As an indication of the urgent demand for dwelling-houses, H. P. Palmer re ports that four months ago he purchased two lots in the rear of his residence on East Couch street and erected two six room dwellings thereon. One on East Davis and Twentieth, on lot 34x100, was bought by William Brimmer for $3500 be fore it was plastered, and the other ad joining was bought by Eva Christy at the same figure. Mr. Palmer, who has recently' opened a real estate office in the Rotlichild building, says he has a number of inquiries for dwelling-houses and that the outlook for a brisk business was never better than at present, and In this opinion other dealers Join. COXSIDUKS PltOSrECTS BKIGHT Architect Reviews 'Work in Hand and Contemplated. C. C. Robbins, architect, reports following: The new home of Iewis 'Montgomery at East Twentieth and East Salmon streets will be ready for occupancy about March 1. , ' Residence tor Rev. J. F. Ghormley at East Twentieth and East Salmon streets, I to cost about $3300, of seven rooms with basement and attic, work now starting, will be completed in about 60 days. Excavation completed for the new Cen tral Cluistian church, and the foundation work will proceed- soon, by day's work, under the supervision of the architect. This building, completed, will cost about jin.ooo. Plans are being completed for a modern eight-room residence, with basement and attic, for Albert J. Murphy, of the Jones Lumber Company, to be erected In Albina near the Forbes church. Plans are being prepared for a fine resi dence for. H. C. Stevens, Sr., of Oregon City. Oregon. This will be a two-story residence with eleven rooms of large size. k Plans arc being prepared for an eight room residence for W. H. Howell, of Ore gon City, which will have full basement and attic. The two latter mentioned will have hot water heating apparatus. In addition to the above mentioned, sketches are being prepared for two homes of large size, which will not be described until plans have been accepted. Mr. Robbins considers the prospects ex ceptionally bright for the coming season. Many new building projects aro con stantly coming up, lie says. CLUB liRKCTtj SKff QUARTKKS Keuilvvorth to Have Hall for Public Meetings. The new Kcnilworth Improvement Club, which was organized at the home of J. C. Westergard, hist week, has already taken up the matter of erecting a public building in that portion of the city. A lot has been secured on KenilwortU ave nue. It is proposed to issue stock to the amount of JiSoO at $1 per share. Of this amount one-half has been subscribed, so the company can be formed for business at once. The new club announces that it will erect a two-story building, the lower floor to be cut up into store rooms for rent, and the top floor to be occu pied by a hall by the club and for other public purposes. The rear part of tne building will. be. reserved for a hose house, a hose-cart and hose having been secured. Tho club is a strong organi zation and comprises the leading citizens of that suburb. A membewllip of 75 is expected at the meeting February 21. At this meeting plans for the new hall will likely be presented and... tho 'building project take definite form. i 1 " : ;; j 1 fj , : !;:-f' : I IS Pn ' I ! f ' '-'''r', y , ; t 1 fl 7i x -I J ItKSIUK.MK OK J.

John P. Sharkey, owner of the tract, eold the two blocks. While all the plans of the purchasers have not matured, it is announced that the two blocks will be covered writh a reinforced concrete tenement apartnient-houso with ample courts for playground, somewhat on the "Old Mission villa" plan. A local architect has been engaged to draw up the plans. The idea is to erect an apartment-house which will be well' ventilated and havo plenty of room for a play ground for children. It will be the first structure in Portland along this line, although in the East this plan of toneJ ment-houses is becoming common. Mr. Mills estimates tho cost of the building at $100,000, and he announced that work on the foundation will be started early this Spring. He said that in the entire struc ture, there will- be 100 separate apart ments, provided with living-rooms, bed rooms, baths and everything connected with a modern home. The structure will be fireproof. Many Residences Transferred. , One of the largest sales of the week on the Peninsula was that of a block con taining 32 lots, which was purchased by C. W. Webster and D B. Thomas from George F. Stivers for $15,000. The block is number 30 in Portsmouth Addition.

The tract lies on the track of tho Vancouver railway, and is part of the Love place adjoining Woodlawn on the west. It is announced that .the new tract will be platted in a few days. This movement marks the breaking up of. the great Love property, that intervened be tween Piedmont and Columbia boulevard, and means that tho home builder will soon reach the boulevard. Record of Permits Keeps Up. In the building line on the East Side the permits issued during the weelc show that new work is starting up every day. P. A. Carlander will erect two dwellings in Holladay addition, one costing $7000 and the other J7oO. Rev. J. F. Ghormley will erect a $3500 home on East Salmon, near Nineteenth street, near where the foun dation of a $33,000 church is being built. A. S. Thompson will put up ' a home in Piedmont at a cost of J5000. It will be a two-story frame and concrete building. W. H. Bequeaith has started work on a two-story frame dwelling on East Yamhill and East Thirteentli street, to cost $5000. A large number of dwellings costinjr from Jl'WO to $20n0 have been started during the week. Large sales have not been the nile, but there lias been during the past week constant sail's of lots and quarters for homes. Real estate men say there has been no jdeerease in the price of ail classes of property. Some investors who were looking for a drop in East Side property have been disappointed, for their expecta tion has not been realized. In what is called outside property on the suburban rail.wis there continues to be a healthful movement in realty. Stretch Out Toward St. John. Aside from "the big packing- plant, which is assured for the Peninsula, there is a progressive movement all the way to St. John. The organization of the Peninsular Development League the past ;week, composed of delegates from the seven -improvement clubs between North Albina and St, John, is significant of the 'determination of the people to do things there. Here tofore improvement of streets has been delayed and held up for the reason con tractors declined to bid on the work. One of the purposes of the league will be to make it possible to improve streets on the Peninsula as well as in other portions of Portland. Many of the principal streets are to be opened where they are closed up, and a contin uous improvement of important high way connecting; with Killingsworth avenue on to St. John will be under taken' this year So far there is no hitch in the proposed in Improvement of Portsmouth avenue between Willam ette boulevard and the harbor, line. The preliminary proceedings have been started and will be pushed forward with as much energy as possible. At Woodstock, which occupies a high plateau In the southeastern district, there is a steady growth, a number of tine homes have been. built there, and more are being built. Owing to the high grround of the main portion of Woodstock, it has always been consid ered a choice place for the home-builder, and the price of property is reason able. Between Woodstock and Ivanhoe, eastward for five miles, is a territory making a. most wonderful growth. It Is estimated that in this territory there are fully 15,000 people. Settlement has extended eastward nearly to Syca more Station, on the Gresham branch of the O. W. P. line, on both sides of the electric railway. Beyond Lents the largre tracts of land that were covered with stumps and logs a few years ago, have been cleared off and new houve have sprung up. As a rule, people in this district own from one to 10 acres. At Lents" practically all available land lias been sold to home-builders, and the transactions now are change of owner ship of homes. While some of the property around Lents waa purchased as an investment, tho main portion, SO per cent, was purchased for home-buildins- Building of cottages has never ceased. At Nashville, on tho Mount Scott Ita.il way, there is a bijr cluster of as at tractive cottages as can be found In any suburb ' of Portland. All the houses here are painted at tractively. At all the points between Lents and. Mount Scott the innumer able homes are well kept. Thos'e who think that Portland is growing only toward the Columbia River should take a Mount Scott car on the rush hours pf the evening. He will then think that nearly 20 per cent of the popula tion lives in the southeastern district. At present there is a warm annexation campaign lrt progress in the southeast ern district.

H A I, SKY STKKKTS, south of Mount Tabor for $16,000, which Is considered a good price for the land at this time. The tract is part of the Wit ten donation land claim and is located in a. growing portion of the citj'. SOUTHERN PENINSULA GROWS Cresham and Troutdalo Feel Effect of Progressive Spirit. Timothy Brownhill, of Gresham, says: "In this part of the county I find a con stantly improving condition, and I am looking for a good year. Many of the large farms have changed hands and are being divided up into smaller tracts for cultivation. At Troutdale, where much of the " town was burned down several months ago, 'many new buildings have been started. The depot will be rebuilt and work has been started on a brick building for Welnhard. of Portland." Mr. Brownhill keeps in close touch with every portion of the county east of Mount Tabor. Gresham has become an. estab lished business and residence center for tho famous Powell Valley. It is one of the most attractive and prosperous towns in tho state. Troutdale. next in impor tance, is' reviving from the recent tire that swept away many of its important buildings. Steps have been taken to Incorporate Fairview, 12 miles from Portland, on the O. R. & N. main line'. A petition asking for a vote on the question has been pre sented to the County Court. Looks Good at Milwaukie. Mayor Shindler, of Milwaukie. says that everything looks good at that place in real estate matters for the coming year. Considerable property is changing hands. Several new buildings are to.be started at once. Large Sale on Nob Hill. Vanduyn & Walton report the fol lowing sales within the past week: M. W. Hunt to Dr. H. W.
