Tho charscteristic festure of real estate business 4is spring 48 the active speculation end investment in suburbsn Isnds, Spring always draws peopls from the densely-populated districts of tho city toward tho country; but this spring several circumstances sve conspirel to givo on upusual {mpulse to the movement. The firo of 1671 mot only destrozed the homes of o very considerablo pro- portion of our entire resident population, but the consequent encroschments of busineas on resl- dence” quariers that wero untouched by tho firo turned o much larger proportion of the peoplo out of thelr homes, and suddealy broke up neighborhood asso- ciations that will never bo re-cstablished. In no large city wau there ever 6o large oportion of the popula- tion turned looes to find Tew homes in the sxmedity. Last year, the aitention ond capitsl of all that large and wealthy class who owned business property was wbscrbed in ths rebuilding of business houses destroyed bythe fire, and in “remodeling tuat which was mob destrosed, tomest tho demands of business. This pursmount necessity having boen met, thelr attention i« now tarmed to tke selection of mew homes, Three prozinent arguménts combine to draw thezo people to thio suburba moro strongly than undor ordinary cir- cumstences, First, They can not only buy cheaper homes, but the ‘percentage of advance in valued of the property s1ikely to bo threa times. 85 great in almostany quarter of the eubrbs as it s fn any of the present residenco quarters of tho faterior potion of the clis, 2nd,8 they must now make new noighbor- Tood acquaintances snyho, 8 large proportion of even our oldest citizens arc “cn the move.” Sccond, Tha experience of o fire of 1871 impreseed upon their minds, as well as on those of now-comers, a dread of being waked np somo night from fancied’ fecurity (o fiy fo their lives, Joaving to destructicn all tho bowo eurroundings, the houses, ihe furniture, the books, ‘pictures, and other objects thet are moro vlusblo by Teascn 'of sssocisted. memorics (han fen times their money value, Third, Tho great in- cresse in {ho cost of owning and maintaining honses within tho legal lmits of the city, where the averago rate of taxation has been incrented nearly G0 r cent within the last yoar by the rebuiling of puilio nildings and varions vther items of increaso in the expensa of tbe City Government, which tho residents guido e city boundary escap) and yet enjoy pecsl the same advantages as those who livo inside and pa all the. expense. - To all men who are locking for new houses theso ste important considerations, znd have, ‘doubiless, -exercised a great influento fn stimulating tho morément o (ho suburbs (s sprivg, The speculative - activity suburt ‘propexty -] duced by theso csuses {5 mot - only -great now, but Bids fair to incresse as the Epring sdvioces.
