seat of-the great Columbia University. Every lot that we are offering for sale is
as level as a prairie, is high, slightly and suitable for a home. University Park lies
on the high plateau between the rivers and between the Willamette boulevard and
the Columbia boulevard. These boulevards are graded and graveled. The natural
drainage is excellent. One street-car line has been in operation through Univer
sity Park for 14 years. The Portland Street Railway Company will commence the
construction of its line to University Park this year. The Standard Oil Company
and Union Oil Company are oach censtracting distributing "plants near University
Park at a represented cost of $25,000 each.. The Columbia University is a growing
institution that will be a perpetual attraction for the better class of persons for
many years. The Peninsula Lumber Company, near University Park, is planning
the construction of an immense sawmill and sash and door factory in addition to .
the one now in operation. The huge drydock is within easy walking distance from
University. Ground has been jtarchased. at Portsmouth, near University Park, by
James Olsen for a boat-building plant.

the above representations to be untrue, we will refund your railroad fare to your

Prices of lots in University Park are far below prices askeckfor. lots Jn Til
lages' of less than one-fourth the population convenient to University Park, with-
out any of the conveniences or advantages of a great city. The factories now in
operation along the deep water front are sufficient to build up a city large enough,
to occupy every lot; between the rivers. The accumulation of industries along the
water front will make sky scrapers necessary on account of the limited ground
suitable for homes and business houses convenient to this industrial district. We
are reserving each alternate block from sale and intend to push, the improvements
to . an extent that will make our reserve blocks worth millions. While our reserve
blocks are increasing in value your lots in. the next block must also increase in
value. Money invested in lots at UniversityTark is absolutely safe and will grow
faster than any other investment you can make. N
Lots range in price from $60 for our cheapest residence lot's to $250 for oun
