! Residence Lots.
There are more new houses being completed
and built in the Trustee's Addition this spring than
in any other 10 blocks of the city.
JTiere is a Reason.
The reason is.that each lot has
,1. -Five foot cement sidewalks,
2. . Graded streets,
3. Sewer,
4. City water, 1 ,
5. Free delivery of mail.
When the Waterworks controversy arose and neither the
Waterworks Company nor the city would provide water mains,
an order was entered in the court having charge of this bank
rupt estate, directing the Trustee at its own expense, to' lay
water mains for all persons needing the same in the Trustee's
or Riverdale Additions. These water mains are now being
laid. The Trustee laid at its own expense five foot cement
crossings.
The Trustee's Addition is being improved with better im
provements than elsewhere in the city, because the lots are
purchased by those who build their own improvements. It
not a tenement district.
