Fine Structures Being Com

Ones Planned.

LarReat Office Edifices In the City
Will Be Radv for Occupancy Soon
After First of Year Many Houses
Under Way.
Nothing seem to affct tha remark
able progress which is being made in
the upbuilding of Portland. In other
western and Pacific coast cities, a tight
money market, prolonged to any extent,
will Immediately curtail building en
, terprisea. The Los Angeles papers are
using quantities ' of space in explaining
why, comparatively speaking, there la so
little building going on there now. The
same thing may be said of Seattle;
there, too, the papers and the real es
tate operators are busy explaining away
the too apparent slump In building de
' velopment.
But with Portland the situation is
altogether different. There are no less
than 26 huge business structures under
construction, while scarcely a week
asses that the contract for some large
rick or concrete building is not let.
Pin i limit mem Vearinf Completion.
Portland now has five magnificent
Office structures in different stages of
completion. Of these probably the big
"Multnomah" at Fifth and Morrison is
tha nearest to being finished. The con
tractors expect to get this structure
ready for occupancy by January 1.
When completed the Multnomah, next to
the Wells-Fargo, wUl have cost more
money than any other building in Port
land. The estimated cost of this struc
ture has never been given out, although
It is believed that not less than 1500,000
will be expended In Its construction. ,
Tha Commercial club structure "at
fifth and Oak streets is rapidly assum
ing shape, and, unless some unforeseen
delay occurs, will be ready for the wait
ing tenants soon after the opening of
the next year. This and the new
11-story Board of Trade building, going
up at Fourth and Oak streets, are lit
that portion of the city where the most
extensive development in class "A"
building haa taken place.
Structures Slow la Completion.
The Board of Trade building, owing to
tha nature of Its construction, will prob
ably not be finished until several
months after January 1. Tl enforced
concrete structures are much slower of
construction than either steel frame or
brick buildings.
- Baldwin A Downinga medical-dental
Office building, at Park and Alder
streets, is beginning to assume the pro
portions of a completed structure. This
will be one of the handsomest office
buildings In the city. i-The Interior ar
rangement is designed especially to i
meet the requirements of physicians and
dentists, snd is said to nave been leased
almost entirely to members of these
- professions.

An Enormous Demand for
Building Plans Keep
Designers Busy.
Portland architects are overrun with
business. Practically every architect In
tha olty has mora commissions than he
can execute. Prospective builders in
ether Oregon cities, and even from
Washington cities come to Portland ar
chitects for their plans.

that the house will be finished ahead of

first of the year.
Tha hotel accommodations of Port
land, which have been lamentably de-
flclent for the past few years, are to
be largely Increased by January, when
three new first-class hostelrles will be
finished and ready for occupancy. The
six-story Holbrook-Lamson hotel at
jKleventh and Stark streets Is well along
toward completion. . This building cov
ers a quarter-block, will be modern and
up-to-date in every particular, and - is
being built at an expenditure of $lt0,
000. Dr. Wetherbee's six-story family
hotel on Ella street, near Washington,
Is nearing completion. The walls are
up and the roof on, and tha workmen are
now engaged on the Interior.,
Dr. C W. Cornelius Is putting up a
Six-story hot1 at Park and Alder
streets, just west of the Baldwin-Downing
building. Dr. Cornelius has . leased
the hotel to a well-known Paclfio coast
hotel man.
David S. Steams' new four-story busi

YamhUI -and Taylor, will be finished
within 60 or 90 daya. The entire struc
ture has been leased to a Front atreet
wholesale rubber company, which will
occupy it soon after the first of the
year.
SCany Houses Being Built.
The steel frame of the Beck building,
on the northwest corner of Seventh and
Oak streets. Is up and work of laying
the conorete floors is under way. This
will be a very expensive structure and
will probably require nearly a year to
build.
Two, three and four-story brick busi
ness houses are going up alt over the
business district, on both sides of the
river.
This construction movement haa been
the most significant and far-reaching
activity in Portland for the past- year
and a half, and promises to continue so
for at least a year to come.

Another sure Indication of Portland's
phenomenal building development 1
shown in the records of the office of
Plumbing Inspector Hey. For the first
seven months of this year that official
sent out 669 written notices to rest
dents of tha city to make sewer con
necllons. For the whole of last year
only 69$ of these notices were sent out
from the plumbing inspectors ornce
while for the year before but 439 o
these notices were mailed.
The indications are that nearly 1,000
of these notices will be mailed from
that office. This will mean that durln
1907 1,000 new residences will have
been completed and ready for occu
pancy. This Is more than double the
number of new dwellings built In 1905
and more than a 60 per cent Increase
over the record of 1906. This is a won
derful record for a city of this size. I
must not be understood that every
house built In the city this year has
a sewer connection. Probably not more
than two thirds of tnem are in dls
tricts provided with sewers, making It a
safe assertion to say tnat at least l.
600 new houses will be completed in
Portland during the year 1907.-
The concrete foundation and basement

Although prices remain fairly firm
the lumber market Is in a peculiar con
dition at present owing to several
causes. The demoralised California
market has shown very Uttle improve
ment during the past week and while
the eastern market remains good it Is
generally conoeded that there will be a
decided falling off should the proposed
new freight rate go into effect October
1. Whether this would have a tendency
to stimulate building or not remains to
be seen.
The California market is said to be
affectlnsr conditions locally In that
leaves larsrer Quantities of the total
output for home consumption, whereas
when vessel upon vessel was aispaicnea
from the mills along the harbor front.
local buyers cut comparatively little
flrure with some of the mills, in some
cases the local market is now the main
outlet for some of the mills. Since
San Francisco discovered It had enough
lumber on hand to last awhile, the ma
jority of the few coastwise lumber
droshers still in oberatlon. have re
ceived their cargoes at mills down the
Columbia, leaving the output of the
mills here to either go east by rail or
remain In the home market.
Mlllmen say there Is good local de
mand, however, considering the season
of the year, and wnne most oi tne mius

to a great extent by the outcome of the
fight that is about to be inaugurated by
the mlllmen aaralnst the Increased
freight rate proposed by the roads

should tms rate become eirective, men
local prices are expected to take
another drop unless the output is lim
ited by the shut down of some of the
mills, as, has been threatened among the
lumbermen.
Closely related to the lumber Indus
try is logging and according to reports
now coming In from the camps, the
sawmills will have no trouble getting
material for their plants If the river
towboats are not overtaxed with busi
ness as was narrowly avoided a few
weeks ago when there was an extra
heavy demand for logs.

Portland stands a good chance to lose
out in tha establishment of a very large
and to this community , a very valuable
manufacturing plant, and all because
of the fact that the promoters o the
enterprise are unable, or at least nave
so far been unable, to secure a desirable
site for the plant. The Western Cooper
age company, the largest concern of the
kind on the Pacific coast, operating at
airrerent points in uaiirorma ana wasn
ington, have for some 'time . sought to
erect a plant near Portland. Tne man
ager of the company selected a site on
the Willamette near the dry dock. The
Port of Portland is willing to give a
25-acre lease on this property,' but abso
lutely refuses to sell, now or at any
tlmo in the future. The owners of the
cooperage company are unwilling to put
up a plant costing a vast sum of money
on' leased ground. It is understood that
the company would have Invested about
$200,000 in a Portland plant had It been
able, to secure a suitable site. It Is
probable that the effort to locate the
concern here will not be abandoned and
that'the Commercial club and kindred
bodies will take the matter up with
Watson Eastman, president of the com
pany, and endeavor to find an available
piece of river frontage on which to lo
cate the factory.

This is the wail of hundreds of em

of manufacturers.
Portlnnd Is handicapped on account of
the lack of workmen In nearly all trades
and the city has more of them now
than at any former period. The great
piriaes tne city is mamng is taxing an
lines of trade and industry to such an
extent that the supply of men is en
tirely inadequate.
The manufacturers of bulldlnar sud-

gestion by -building homes and Inci
