Show HAXTON PLACE: Haxton Place is tho newest addition to Salt Lake City. It is located between Ninth and Tenth East on the south side of Brigham street, and when tho plans which are now completed are carried out, it will bo one of the most handsome hand-some and exclusive residence sections In the city. The entrance to Haxton Place will be through a beautiful arched arch-ed gateway, tho contsructlon of which necessitated tho ex- pendituro of several thousand dollars. Tho grounds are to bo parked, terraced, and tho street paved, and when finished the cost will be in the neighborhood of $60,000. The drive, lenown as Haxton Drive, which will be used - only for carriages and machines, a separate ontrance being provided for delivery wagons and such, is sixty-six feet wide, thirty-six feet of this being paved, and fifteen feet on each side of the paving will be given up to sidewalks and parkings. There will be electroliers along tho sidewalk, illuminating illumi-nating tho entire drive. The plat contains twelve lots, four lots, oach seventy feet, fronting on Brigham, and four lots on each side of Haxton Drive, 50 feet by 140, ana in addition there is a separate site for a garage or bain for each lot, outside of, but adjoining, Haxton Place. The building restrictions will be high enough to ensure the most exclusive homo sites in Salt Lake. We believe that Dr. Keith, who is tho owner of Haxton Place, has solved the problem of how to handle the large blocks of the city, tho center of which heretofore have generally been of ,ittle value and very unsightly. Under this plan tho city gains 000 feet of valuable frontage, and if adopted where- ' ' over practicable throughout the city, would mateally increase in-crease the assessed valuation of the city. wSMBIBKKBKEBBKSBBKKHRKBEttlKKSSSSMl "m |
