Probably threo-fourths of the real ostate trananctions at presont—or, for that matter, at any time—are purchases of ohosp lots in tho outskirts of the eity, just at the ontor edgo of tho limits of compuetly-built dlstricts, at prices ranging from 2800 to §1,200 por lot. Tho groat majority of theso purchason aro for actunl ocen- pancy, and onch one indicatea tho establislinent of a homo of somo pormanent citizon, fho greatest activity, both in buying lots of this class and iu building houses costing from §1,500 t0 £3,000 on thom, s probably in the district wost of Milwaukeo avenue, north of Indiana strect, and s far north as North aveuuo. Another district whore {ho sotivity in buying and improving this olaws of property is nearly, it not quito, equal, is that west or Roubon stroot and south of Tivone ty-socond utroot, noarly ns far wost as tho now city limits, Thoro ja alvo groat activily in a dis- triot just oast of Coutral Park, about & mile squaro,—from Wostorn avenue to Kedzlo avou 0, and from Kinzio ntreot to Harrison stroot, In this distriot, howovor, pricos aro much higher, ranging from 260 to $100 per front foot, and proporty I8 boing fmproved with a batter clasg of Lousos, Thoso threo districts aro included in bolt of torritory somothitig over a milo wide and aboutfourmiloslong, that lies next east of the chain of West 8ido parks, Thero is nothing spog- ulativein conneotion with tho salos and Improve- mentsof proporty in thoso quartora, The notivity in the logitimate offact of tho oxpansion of tho the city and the sottlomont thero of a resident population that are rapidly flling up tho space botwoon the }»mnont limita of solidly-built streot linos and the Woet Bldo parka, At the prosont rato of progross it will not bo over five or six yonra boforo tho wholo of tho distriot will bo an ehiokly bullt up ns Inrgo part of torritory onst of it {8 now.

Thora ia o diutrict north of about Boldon nve- nuo and west of North Olark street whoro pricos and im“rovumoulu similar to thoso in tle first of tho above-mentioned West Side distriota pro- vail; but the activity of saloa and butlding isnot 80 gront, owing to tho faot that thers is no con- veniont moans of transit from the contre of tho city to tho most desirnble paris of tho cheap rosldenco prl}fimrty in that direction. In_faes, this {s tho diftioulty with tho wholo of tho Northt Bido suburbs, and the main ronson that they do not improve more, is, firsl, that nono of tho horse-cars of ~ ihnt division ocomo down into the contral businoss unrter 3 second, that nono of tho stroet railway linos on that side roach tho now residenco distrlots yhoro }Iunplu can buy ground at $10 and $60 por ¥ront ooty and whero salaried and professionnl mon would bo willing to mako permanent homes, Evory property-ownor on the North Sido has n largo Interoat at stako in soouring the transit of oll the North Sido horse-onra ncross the river to lhndo}slh stroot.

JTUMTIOLDT PARK AND VICINITY, Matorial progress has beon mndo in the dovol- gpmont of proporty ou tho lino of improvement to Humboldt Park, and tho l)nvcmunb of Mil- waukeo avonug is boing rapldly pushed forward fo its intorsection with North nyenuo, to which point {ho stroot-cars will bo running as soon as the pavoment is complotod. North avonue las been ofuderad from Milwaukeo avenuo west to the wost line of Humboldt Park; making n continuous and good drive, all tho year round, from Lincoln Park in tho North Divlslon to Ilumboldt Park in tho West Division. A great many handsomo villag and cotlages nare mow.in process of construc- tion, and others aro _already completed, olong North avenue _betweon Milwaulkes avonue and Humboldt Park and Boulovard. Tho Chicago & Pacifio Railrond Company havo built » fine depot, called “ Humboldt Btation,” on Bloomington strest and Galifornin avenuo, California avenuo is tho cast lino of Humboldé Park, and runa south along tho east lino of Douglas Parlk to the South Dranch, The Bride- woll grounds join the avenus immodiately on tho wost, which makes this avenuo ono of tho longest {n tho city. The lands and “building lots of the Humboldt Park Residonco Associntion are in Hapsbrough & Hoss' Subdivision, oxtending from North ayenuo to Armitago road, and from Callfornin avenuo to Humboldt Boutevard, on both sides of tho railrond station. A numborof plans for boautifal villns and cottages aro belng proparod, and the houses will bo built this goason. Tho; will bo suppliod with artesion woll wator, and, boing situated” only threo and a Lalf miles from tho Court-Touso, and convenlently loeated both to stenm, rall, and strect cars, this will bo o favorito suburbof Chicago. Tho Humboldt Parl Rasidenco Association paid $1,000 por ncro for theso lands lagt October, It is safo to say tho conbancemont of tho proporty is_niroady ovor 23 por cont, nod It will probably doubloin a short timo. ‘The Fumboldt Boulevard, 250 feot wido, runs n!fluq) tho subdivision on tho west lina, nnd is now boing improved by_private contrach, by the owners, The property lice Euat'uutsidu of the clty limits, on the north, ‘Iho contract for the improvement of tho boulsvard includes tho S}nnung of four rows of trees of six iuchos in iamotor, about thirty feot npart, and tho sodding of the beds adjoining tho centrnl drive, in the width on oach #ido of forty-six feet. It is also proposod to improvo the drivoe with macadam for the first one-half milo north of the park. "Tho Parlc Commissioners intoud to finish this spring tho work on tho eastorn portion of the park, commoncod lnst summer, A largo grotto Aina boon designed, and will also bo conatructed, This, in addition to the beautiful “ Ramblo" Inid out, will make that part of the Ilumboldt Dark ono of tho most attractive spols on tho West Sido, Values in tho noighborliood of the park have advanced very maforially sinco last summor, From $60 to 76 por footis obtained for choica locations on_park fronts, while the princi- al avenuos leading therofo—Chicago avonue, ivision stroot, and North aventue—aro Lold nf from 240 to §50 por foot.

It will bo scon that these prices are comparn- tively choap,—offoring oqual advantagos in situn- tion,—and thoro can bo no donbt that thoy et vory mnturh‘nllg advance this summor, Ono groat obatacle in the genoral advanco of property north of Chicago avenuc was in tho fact of tho entiro quarter eection situated botwoen Chicago avenue and Division atroot, Roboy streot aud Wostern avenue, clled tho Buffren Subliyiaion was, until lntoly, withheld from tho market by the Leirs of the Suffren Entato, Thq{ biave, however, now con- cludad to dispose of i OX TIIE SOUTH SIDE, Tho quartor whore thero is tho grostest ac- tivity in sales and improvoments of proporty worth from 350 to 370 pr front foot seoms to bo in Egandalo. Probably not less than 2,000 feot of atroot frontago have boen sold thers within tho past two or tlree months, to partics who ~ will improve it this summer. Tho greator portion of thin frontage will, of course, bo merely improved with shrubbery and made the ornamontal nurmun;llnfi of handsome rosidoncos, but it will bo occupiod, and probably never be put in the market for salo again.
