OPPORTUNITY wi “About a year ago I had an.opportunity to buy that site for a whole lot less than it is worth now.” said a man who stood in front of the five big Co-op- erative Apartment Buildings that WARDMAN has built at First St.. New York Avenue and M St. N.W. Soon rental tenants will pass these buildings and remark: I had an oppor- tunity to buy one of those apartments when they were the most reasonably priced homes in Washingon.” Vision and the courage to act on your convictions will spell success: whereas timidity and procrastination will keep you in the ranks of those who “had an opportunity.” This huge development has already served materially to increase property values in this locality. Now the Sibley Hospital is doubling its size and the C. & P. Telephone Company is erecting a $725.000 building close by. More than TWO !\rlLLION DOLLARS worth of major improvements concentrated in this neighborhood within the last six months. Further development to follow. LOOK AHEAD TO E VALUES BUILDINGS AT THE ORIGINAL PRICE. You can buy a delightfully. sunny, front. bungalow-apartment, with three exposures, * consisting of large reception hall, living room, two hedrooms, kitchen and bath, for an initial payment of $1,460 and $58.40 a month. The operating cost of this apartment, including taxes. coal, janitor service. insurance, etc., is $15.45 a month, fully fifty percent less than the maintenance expense of a house of equal size.
