Show . HKVONI) JOKDAN. Acreage Property Wentward Looming l'p hb mi Invent men t. The Denver papers ure advertising Salt Lake acreage property quite txten-sively. txten-sively. Salt Lake Park, ns it is styled, is set forth ns a most desirable location, and it is offered for sale in blocks only. As if to confirm the Donver advertisers in their opinion, two gontlemen of this city said to a Timks man yostordny that there was no better purchase in all Salt Lake than ocre proporty beyond Jordan. Land over there now is commanding good figures, ond offers of $1700 an ncre tlnd no sellers. It seems to be tho confirmed con-firmed opinion of a great many Suit Lake people that the city will expand westward; and when the many natural attractions of that region aro taken into consideration it seems only reasonable that resident proporty at least, situated in that vicinity, should be sought after. A great building boom will soon be inaugurated between tho city nnd Garfield, and The Timf.s was assured yesterday by competent authority that a large numbor of cottages cot-tages would shoitly be erected along the Union l'acifio road in that direction. Already the Union Pacific starts in with a cheap fare to Uarfleld and return, and before a grout while several trains a day will be plying botweon the two places. This of itsolf will cause inquiry for resident resi-dent property near tho great resort, nnd it may be that the Denver purchasers saw further ahead than they were given credit for when they invested in proporty beyond Jordan. |
