THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TU I'QDAY JA\'UARY 25, 1887, =500 LOTS SOLD YESTERDAY N GEORGE H. BOGGS GREAT ADDITION 0 THE CITY OF OMAHA & THE FUTURE IN STORE FOR IT. Grand P’Pi&%\f@ sale All Day To=day. A Splendid Chance for Those Wishing to Make Money. Low Prices of the Lots. Free Carriages for AlL In Sunday’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 LOTS 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, whos2 future is that of a magnificent 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 This being the case, she can defy those influenses which have been so sirongly hrought 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 instoad of Omaha making cvertures to the railroads the tahles are heing turned and the railrcads 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 lL.ocate 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 to reason then that these other roads must seek new fields for the location of their interests here. RECOGINIZTIING THHRESH PFACTS Mr, Boggs has easily foreseen, as any person possessed of but ordinary inteiligence 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 Topknet and Has Eecured 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 opened to the people of Omaha his entire addition of 1,200 lots yesterday and to-day At the Nominal Price of $150 Per L.ot. This low price will only be made for those who purchase their lots on Tuestday. After this prices on the lots will he raised to $250 and $300 for the next few days. Then there will be another raise, unt| the true valus of the lotsis reached. There will, no doubt, he a great rush for these choice lots, and in anticipation of this Messrs. Boggs & Hill have provided an extra force of clerks which wiil be in readiness to wait upon all who may call as expeditiously as possile. One-fifth to one-half will he required in cash, except in cases where reliable purchasers may desire easier terms. which will he given, Boggs & Hill will keep their office open from 7 o'clock in the morning until 9 in the evening to-day, including the noon hour from 12 to | o'clock. This is done in order to give working people a chance as well as others whose time is much occupied during the day. This is onz of the opportunitics of a lifetime to secure for a mere trifle lots that may make a purchaser rich. It is utte:ly impossible to figure out how the lots can fail to hecome immensely valuable. This is especially true in view of the fact that the biidge wh chi must be built by the lowa roads to enter Omaha will doubtless he constructed opposite this addition. The glorious prospects of this portion of the citv must in fact be easily discerned by the most casual observer, 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 &ddition The chances are that the entwre 1,200 lots will be sold before the sun goes down to.duay as over 500 were suld yesterday, and the man who can sparve a few minutes Jrom business should be sure to buy his lots to-day. It is vumored that the Northwestern car shops arve to be built within a few rods of this land,and this,if iruearould easily make each lot in this addition worth from $1,000 to $1,500, But the other derelopments in that part of the city will be sufficient to make fortunes for all who secure a sufficient nwmnber of these lots, i 3 REMEMBER THESE LOTS WILL BE SOLD AT THE OFFICE OF BOGGS & HILL, 1408 Farnam Street, At private sale on to-day, Tuesday, January 25th, All should attend who desire to make money, for the lots will positively be -ol; for these low prices, notwithstanding the fact they are worth three times as much now.
