BUY DENVER LOTS
BUY MONTCLAIR LOTS
rrrri 'VWr'W'WW 'r"sf
Reasons Why You Should Buy Property in Montclair aueen Addition
1. Because Montclair addition is lo
cated directly in the line of growth, of
Denver. It is a well known fact that
East Denver is the finest and most beau
tiful portion of tho city. It is in "East
Denver" the famous "Montclair district"
is located.
2. Because there are no mills or fac
tories in or near Montclair, and the air
is always perfectly clear and pure;
3.( Because the lots offered for sale
are absolutely in shape to build on, re
quiring no grading or filling.
4. Because you are buying realty in
the best and largest city in the Middle
West, and that will have a population of
500,000 within ten years, and your prop
erty will then be worth many times what
it will cost you now.
5. Because by the completion of
'Denver's Great Boulevard System with
in one year (costing $325,000) in the
eastern portion of Denver, these lots will
double in value in two years' time.
6. Because the title is perfect, a
Warranty-Deed and Abstract being given
on the completion of the purchase.
7. Because Montclair has a 2 elec
tric street car line service, Colfax ave
nue electric line and the Eighth avenue
electric line, running directly to the
heart of Denver, with but a single 5-cent
fare, including a transfer to any part of
the city. From 15 to 20 minutes' ride
only to the business center of Denver.
8. Because one of the finest and larg
est schools is in Montclair, as well as two
churches, a branch postoffice, free mail
"DENVER'S
delivery and other evidences of an up-to-date
addition.
