16 THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1880—EIGHTEEN PAGES. —, REAL ESTATE. Strong, but Not Speculative? Demand for Real Estate. ~ Sale of the Davidson Block—Acre Property at Kenwood and Woodlawn. New Enterprise at Lake Calumet ~Building of the Chicago Sugar-Refinery. Building-Permits of the Week— New Sewers—Real Estate in New York. SALES OF THE WEEK. Real estate has not been more in demand since the panic than at this time. The pres- eut situation is the reverse of the unhealthy speculation of Jast fall. ‘The present temper oi the market is not speculative in any sense. Only those buyers are in the field who have tmoney to invest. Business property is in demand for the income it will yield; resi- dence property is beg boughtand. improved for the same reason. What buying there is of acres.is done cautiously by men who take only eligible tracts. With these Jimitations, the demand for real estate is certainly strong. with a promise of great activity during the coming winter and next spring. Investment securities are be- coming so high that real estate is by compzr- ison very cheap, and the rapid growth of the city at the centre and the circumference is giving Chicago real estate 2 new basis of value. One of the prifteipat purchases of the week was made by. Mr. Waller, who bought the Davidson Block, on Fifth avenue, between Madison and Monroe streets, eighty feet front, for $107,000. Mr. John Quincy Adams was the pur- chaser of the store on Monroe street, near Franklin, sold by Mr. Charles B. Farwell, for $90,000. E. C.

North of city limits—Sales, 6; consid- on: 23; consideration, $150,035. West of city limits—Sales, 7s consideration, $8,050. Total sales, 151; total consideration, $702,572, ACRE PROPERTY. The most important transaction put on record last week was the sale of ten acres on the northwest corner of the Grand Bou- Jevard and Forty-eighth street, excttstreets, and 150x150 on southwest corner of Forty- seventh street, by Jonathan Boyd to 0. W. Clapp for $40,000. 2fr. Clapp: sold the Calu- met avenue front of his purchase, 625x130 feet, on each side of the avenue, to Afr. Ed- son Keith, for $27,500, Uenry T. Chace has sold in Woodlawn fifty-five lots in Wait & Bowen’s Subdivision on the Miinois. Central Railroad, between Sixty-third and Sixty-seventh streets, for $2,000; house and four lots at South Chica- go for $4,100; two lots at Cornell for $450, Lake Calumet begins to feel the stir of speculation on its eastern border. Several manufacturing concerns have begun to look for sites on that side of the Jake. Work on the canal to be dug through by the Pullmans has been begun. The dirt taken out will ‘be used for an embankment for a railroad to run parallel with the canal, The plan for the railroad is that it shall start from 2 pointon the Llinois Cen- tral Railroad Company’s tracks just west of and below the Pullman Works,. crosses Calumet Lake on the channel embankment, continuing its course nearly due east to tho Danville & Vincennes Railroad, which it is to join at a point below Brown’s Mills. It becomes a part of this line running: into South Chicago. . * Tho Chicago Real Estate Journal express- es the opinion that a large amount of capital will seek suburban tracts of real estate near the city in the immediate future on account of the wonderfal history they have made, and are ripe for repeating. The most rapid fortunes, it says, have been made in this. kind of property, and it gives these examples: Washington Heights was purchased in 1863 by the Blue Island Land 4 Building Com- pany for $35,000. ‘The dividends on this in- Yestment have reathed nearly $850, an there are nearly 100 acres now marketable at from $1,200 to $1,800 per acre, or a clean Profit of $895,000 of $35,000, : In 1865 W. B. Ogden, now deceased, paid $80 per acre for eighty acresin the Town of Cicero, adjoining the city. The same tract was sold ten years ago at $2,800 per acre. It is now worth atleast $3,000 per acre, or $280,000. Nearly 1,000 acres was sold in 1872 in See. 10, 59, 13, at $1,000 per acre. The full depth lots opposit the car-shops of the North- western Railway Company, being por- tion of the tract nearest the city, are now selling at from $150 to $1,100 per lot, twenty- five feet front. The increase in the remainder is scarcely believable. There are many large Tortunes in the total: valuation. a A tract of twenty acres south of Thirty- first street sold in 4865 for $54,000, and but a few months after. for $10,000. It is now within the city limits, and is worth from $1,000 to $250 per front foot. BUILDING. ‘The new building just begun by the Chi- cago Sugar-Refining Company, on West Tay- Jor streét, running from Beach to the river, willbe eleven stories and basement higli, and will cover 160 feetsquare. A second building will be about 70x130 feet and ten stories and basement high, Besides these ‘will be six smaller buildings.” The area cov- ered with buildings will be about 150x310 feet. The capital stock subscribed is $759,- 090, something more than half of which is held by Eastern merchants, the remainder being held respectively by Marshall Field, L. ‘iter, C. H. McCormick, Martin Ryerson, William Dickinson, and II. C. Carver. The buildings will cost $200,000, and will be fin- ished in July or August. The Board of Education has decided to call for breposals to sell to the City of Chicago sites for schools inthe vicinity of Wabash avenue and Twenty-sixth street, to relieve the Moseley and Douglas Schools: in_ the vi- cinity of Union and Eighteenth streets, to relieve the Walsh Street School; in the vi- cinity of Fourteenth street and Newberry avenue, to relieve the Foster and. South Union Street Schools; and in the vicinity Warren avenue and Oakley street, to relieve the Hayes, Brown, Kinz, and Marquette Schools. There is still $140,000 Jeft of the appropriation of 1880 for school buildings and sites. A new school is to be built in the vi- nity of California avenue and Jackson street Bricks are in abundant _ supply, $0,000,000 beingon hand inthe yards. Prices range between $8 and $10 a thousand. Consider- able building has been postponed _til! spring in cousequence of the recent rise of $23 iousand. In the building-permits of the week were those to the Chicago Sugar-Refining Com- pany to erect an_cleven-story refinery, 150x 310 feet, corner of Beach and Taylor streets, to cost $200,000; to T. A. Koch to erect a two- Lincoln street, to cost P. Ilutechinson to erect a four-story store on Franklin _ strect, near Randolph, _ to. cost $40,000; to Nathan Mears, to erect a_ three-story dwelling, corner of Cass and Rush streets, to cost $8,000: one to the same to erect a two- story dwelling, Rush street, to cost $4,000; to the estate of W.B.

A project for a Real-Estate Exchange or Call Board has been forned in this city ui- der more promising. auspices than any that have preceded it. Messrs. W. K. Nixon and Chandler & Co. announce that they propose to commence on Thursday, Nov. 18, a systew- of regular real-estate sales, to be known un- der the name of “ The Chicago Real-Estate Call Board.” Their plan is to haye an “ up- set” price affixed to every piece of property offered, which price shall invariably be less than the real current value of the property, and at which price it shall be positively sold to the first bidder, if some other real pur- chaser do not offer more. They also propose to provide every facility for buyers to borrow money at the lowest rates upon their pur- chases if they desire to doso, and they can ascertain these rates and the amount of loan that can be had on the property before bid- ding upon it. ' Realestate exchanges havé been successful in New York and Bos- ton. Chicago has now a successful Jocal Stock Board, and it is to be hoped thata eal-Estate Exchange may soon be added to our business institutions. MISCELLANEOUS. Bids for the new sewers to be constructed were opened on Friday. Awards will prob- ably be made in favor of the following. who were the lowest bidders: For sewer on Lin- coin avenue, from Belden to Fuilerton, and, Lane place, from Centre to Sophia street, Reilly & Smith, $2,027; Thirty-eighth street, from Butterfield to La Salle, and Twenty-seventh street, from al- sted to Lime, Reilly & Smith, $128; Hoyne avenue, from Warren avenue to Madison street, and Oakley street, from Monroe to Adams, Michael McNichols, $311; Ewing place, from Robey street to: Horne avenue; Wood street, from Ellen to Milwaukee ave- nue; Le Moyne street, from Robey to Hoyne avenuc, Reilly & Smith, $1,177; alleyway, from Adams to Van Buren'street, Martin Mullaney, $622; Page street, from }inbbard to Kinzie, and Leavitt streef. from Walnut to Lake, Reilly & Smith, S518 Ogden avenue, from Washington to “anes street, Reilly & Smith, $675; and for Amjrose street, from Leavitt to Eastward street, Reilly & Smith and David Mallinan bid ‘$200 each. ‘The awards will most likely be made as above. Work on the Harrison street viaduct will be begun in about ten days. Bids were in- vited some time ago, and the delay in going an with the improvement| has been on ac- count of a misunderstanding between the Yailroads and tho city as tq what proportion of the expense they would pay, which has now been adjudsted. in “@perations in real estate'in New York do not, according to the ReuliEstate Record of that city. show the least disposition to await the result of the elections, * {nvestors, build- ers, and brokers are actively at work bring- eration, $3,050, South of city limits—Sales, Ds lJong-pending negotiations to a proper issue, and making others. ‘The Record men- tions the purchase of a corner lot of.45 feet front_ on.
