Residence property fronting on o'r convenient to a public park is al

have been made to conform to the proposed driveways of the park. As soon

.The titles are perfect. A warranty deed with full covenants and a certified abstract of title will be given to each purchaser.
The prices are low. This is nearly always the case In placing a new addition on the market The prices are made very low to get
people interested. The value of all the property increases as new homes are built, and those who buy early share In the Increased
value, because they help to make It
BECAUSE The population of Portland is growing at the Yale of 30,000 a year, and all of these people must have homes. The building statistics
for the past 21 months Bhow that Kl per cent of the permits granted for residences have been issued for home on the East side. To
day 73 per cent of the people in Portland live on the East side, and 27 per cent on the West side.
Does this mean, anything?
It means wonderful advances In east side prices in general, and Laurelhurst in particular, because Laurelhurst prices are now Just
about one-half of the real values.
It surrounds the new city park that is to 'be Improved at once, and made one of the great scenic attractions of Portland, adding value
to all adjacent property.
The lots now selling at an average price of $1150 each win he worth double that , amount in one year.
