THE_OMAHA DAILY BRE: MONDAY JANUARY 24, 1897, A MAGNIFIGENT PROPERTY! VMR. GEORGE H. BOGGS GREAT ADDITION TO THE CITY OF OMAHA, THE F'UTURE IN STORE FOR IT. Grand Opening Sale AlL Day To-dag and TO=MOITOYW,. A Splendid Chance for Those Wishing to Make Money. Low Prices of the Lots. Free Carriages for Al In yesterday's issue of the Bee Mr, George H. Boggs, of the well known real estate firm of Boggs & Hill, published a map of his mag- nificent and immense addition, comprising over —=1,200 VALUABLE LOTSE=— . located on the highest and best ground in the valley in the northeast part of the city. The value, both intrinsic and prospective, of these lots can only be comprehended by the Bee readers upon looking at a few facts concerning the future of this splendid tract of land. : Mr. Boggs has placed this addition on the market, foreseeing that the six or eight Iowa roads must enter Omaha and that before long, There is no escaping the inevitable conclusion that they must come into this city. Omaha, as the growing and great city, whose future is that of a magnific nt metropolis of the glorious west, has passed that stage in her career, when the railroads can make or unmake her. Her future is as assured as her RESOURCES ARE UNBOUNDED. This being the case, she can defy those infiuences which have heen so strongly brought to hear upon her in the past, and to retard her growth and prosperity. Rail- road men are not slow to perceive these facts, and instead of Omaha making overtures to the railroads the tables are being turned and the railroads are making one grand rush to push their tracks into this city. It being an accepted fact then that the railroads are to come into Omaha, the question arises what are they going to do when they get here? Where Can They Locate Their Depots, Their tracks, yards, switches, shops, round houses, etc? Where can they concentrate their immense interests, which must of necessity cover hundreds and thou- sands ofacres? Already the present accommodations are far too limited for the roads which are now here, and daily the work ot extension of yards, side tracks, ete., is being pushed. It stands toreason then that these other roads must seek new fields for the location of their interests here. RECOGINIZING THESHEH FACTS > Mr. Boggs has easily foreseen, as any person possessed of but ordinary intefligence must, that the railroads must take up the land in the valley north of the city, which indeed is already partly usurped by the sidetracks of some of the companies. There is no place so available or so suitable trom natural characteristics as this property OF EASY ACCESS FROM THE CITY, Level and not subject to any changes of grade, it is indeed most desirable for the purpose designated. In view of these facts its value is bound to be enormous, and those who avail themselves of the opportunity which is briefly outlined below will never regret it. Mr. Boggs Has Determined to Take Time by the Topknot and Has Secured This Addition, WHICH IS BOUND TO GROW INTO IMMENSE VALUE, And keep growing in value long after many of the additions now in market have passed into oblivion. Now that the attention of Omaha people has been called to this addition it seems really astonishing that none of our wide awake real estate men have discovered the great value that must soon attract to lots located as these are The sleepless agents of the railroads have not been so heedless to the future interests of their roads and have bought the entire island which Cut-off Lake surrounds and are out on a still hunt to secure all the land up there. But Mr. Boggs got there first and as a consequence opens to the people of Omaha his entire addition of 1,200 lots to-day and to-morrow At the Nominal Price of $150 Per L.ot. This low price will only be made for those who purchase their lots on these twodays. After this prices on the lots will be raised to $250 and $300 for the next few days. Then there will he another raise, untl the truz valug of Y the lotsis reached. There will, no doubt, he a great rush for these choice lots, and in anticipation of this Messts. Boggs & Hill have provided an extra force of clerks which will be in readiness to wait upon all who may call as expeditiously. as possible. One-fifth to one-half will be required in cash, except in cases where reliable purchasers may deslre easier terms. which will be given, Boggs & Hill will keep their office openifrom 7 o'clock in the morning until 9 in the evening on to-lay and to-morrow, including the noon hour from 12 to I o'clock. This is done in order to give working people a change as well as others whose time is much occupied during the day. This is one of the opportunities of a lifetime to secure for a mere trifle lots that may make a purchaser rich. It is utterly impossible to flgurelout how the lots can fail to become immensely valuable. This is especially true in view of the fact that the bridge which must he built by the towa roads to enter Omaha will doubtless be construted opposite this addition, The glorious prospects of this portion of the citv must in fact be easily discerned by the most casual ohserver, and the man woman or child who wishes to make a certain, safe and profitahle investment cannot do hetter than to Put Money Into This Addition The chaces are that the entire 1,200 lots will be sold before the sun goes down to.day and the man who can sparve a few minutes from business showld be sure to buy «tis lots to-day, for Tuesday inay be too late, It is rumored that the Nortlawvestern car shops are to be built within a few rods of this land, anid this, iy true, world easily mal:e each lot in this addition worth from $1,000 to $1,500, But the other developments in that part of the city will be sufficient to inake fortunes for all who secure a sufficient number of these lots, REMEMBER THESE LOTS WILL BE SOLD AT THE OFFICE OF BOGGS & HILL, 1408 Farnam Street, At private sale on To-day and To-morrow, January 24th and 25th All should attend who desire to make money, for the lots wiil pos'~ tively be sold for these low prices, notwithstanding the fact they are worth three times as much now.
