Canadian Pacific and Milwaukee & Burlington, which come there over other lines, all. center at University Park. Half that
number of transcontinental railroads made such cities as St. Paul, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, Des Moines, Omaha, Kansas City and
others Look at the sawmills that give employment to thousands; look at the woolen mills, flour mills, shipyards, steel works,
stock-yards packing-houses, furniture factories, veneer factory, basket factory; cooperage factory, shingle mills, iron foundries,
asbestos works sash and door factories, navigable rivers, grain docks and the great Columbia University. Do you doubt that all
these things will quickly bring millions to the Peninsula, of which University Park is the center?
Law of Supply
and Demand
The law of supply and demand works
the double cross at University Park.
The almost unlimited supply of factory
and mill sites on the low land will for
many years make such sites cheap,
which will have the effect of continu
ally attracting factories around the
Peninsula, and making demand on the
high land for business and residence
locations. The high land suitable for
residences and business purposes is lim
ited by the rivers, there being only 100
feet square above high water for each
person now residing there. It is quite
clear to any person that this condition
must make extremely high values on
the high lands, of which University
Park is the center. The O. R. & N. R.
R., as shown on the map, is at the base
of the high land. Study the picture.
You cannot get any of the benefit of
this condition unless you get a piece of
this high land. Only one lot at Uni
versity Park will in a few years from
now be worth a small fortune.
STUDY THE PICTURE IT TELLS THE TRUTH
We Are Not
.Fakers
r
Our plat shows that we are not fakers.
We laid out University Park con
fidently expecting that some day it
would be the center of a great city. We
have made many of our streets 100 feet
wide and have placed an alley back of
every lot. These conveniences will
attract business in a business district.
Fakers always make their lots 25x100
feet, without alleys, and with long
blocks and narrow streets. Nearly all
Wo tt mr.r in loncrti
UlU 1UU O.L, 1" wiifc -
Although in the very center of the
Peninsula, we are offering lots at
University Park at lower prices than
can be obtained at any other place on .
the Peninsula.
Speculate on Our Money
None too poor to buy on our terms. We require only
pnmiph down to show good faith and a little monthly
.r,, intorecto Tn npr cent rash down at
time'of sale and five dollars per lot per month, without interest, is speculating on our money, because you get the advantage of the
rise in value for years before you have made your final payment. Buy a lot, even though you cannot carry more than 25 by
100 feet. Only 25 by 100 feet at University Park will be a fortune in a few years from now. The Sf?JJ
installment plan on the Peninsula will soon be a thing of the past, because all lots will soon have passed into the hands of those who
will sell only for a large portion of the price in cash down at time of sale. Your opportunity is now, while lots are yet cheap and
terms easy. Prices now $12 per front foot for residence lot; up to $20 per front foot for business lots
