I IN extent, in comprehensiveness, comprehensive-ness, in protective restriction and in harmonious treatment, Washington Heights 'The Country Club District" will be unsurpassed by any residential park in America: Nearly thirteen hundred acres are here being transformed, under the most skilled and authori-tive authori-tive direction, into a uniformly attractive and healthful residence district : Within the next year, more than one hundred thousand dollars will have been expended in making mak-ing modem improvements in Washington Heights; this work is already in progress; cold weather has not impeded nor obstructed the grading of streets ; the building of a concrete span to dispose of the waters of Burch Creek ; Winter will not check the other extensive operations now in rapid progress : It was the original intention of the Federal Land & Mortgage Company, Com-pany, (which holds an absolute and clear title to all of the land in The Country Club District) to i withhold the lots in Washington Heights until all of the improvements improve-ments were completed, but so great has grown the demand for property here, that, with this x announcement, building lots (subject to the company's rigid restrictions) will be offered to the people of Ogden: To those who study carefully the conditions governing The Country Coun-try Club District it resolves itself into a question not of "Can I afford af-ford to buy in Washington Heights" but "Can I afford NOT to buy here, where my home surroundings sur-roundings will not only be safe but where the value of the land will be certain of doubling, or even trebling, within a very short time." A great garden-like neighborhood of homes, each in its own exquisite ex-quisite setting of flowers and vines and shrubs and all merging merg-ing into a harmonious whole; away from the smoke, away from the wind, away from the noise; free from all objectionable surroundings that's the spirit of the Country Club District. Washington Heights is more than 250 feet higher than the site of The Eccles Building, where our offices are located; there are views of the mountains, an inspiring in-spiring view of the Great Salt Lake; a far-stretching vision of a beautiful land; an unobstructed, unobstruct-ed, unexcelled, uplifting outlook that stretches for miles. Situated midway between two mountain gorges, The Country Club District Dis-trict is protected from severe winds; it is the most sheltered part of this valley ; its gently rolling roll-ing topography gives it perfect drainage; the soil formation is ideal for the home-builder's purposes. pur-poses. When one studies the manner in which generous Dame Nature has blessed this broad plateau with natural advantages, one is filled with admiration for the far-seeing foreknowledge of the late I Brigham Young who, leading his courageous band of pioneers into this "chosen land" more than half a century ago, selected this same area and set it apart for a future residential park. He did not live to see this "dream" become a reality but the great, sheltered tract that has now become be-come Washington Heights, was sold intact by his estate, and held intact until ample Capital, represented repre-sented by the Federal Land & Mortgage Company, recently purchased the property and put its experts to work to bring about in actuality the plans of the far-seeing far-seeing Brigham Young. Added to its natural advantages, The Country Club District will very shortly possess oil macadam streets, cement sidewalks and curbs, sewers and watermains, gas and electricity for the entire length of Washington Avenue, which is being extended, with its full width, from Fortieth street to the Weber River. Washington Avenue's extension will have a park fifty feet wide, with an 18-foot 18-foot concrete boulevard on each side; the district will have car service; a boulevard commanding command-ing a view that surpasses description; descrip-tion; quaint pedestrian "ways," neighborhood playgrounds and many other modern and delightful delight-ful conveniences and community comforts. Telephone and other poles go into the alleys; all streets will shortly be properly graded, bridges are being builded, curbing of excellent excel-lent park design is provided, trees and shrubbery properly planted, ornamental lights and stone and concrete columns expertly ex-pertly placed, every park-way sodded, triangular parks and "beauty nooks" artistically treated and all quickly to be completely finished wjth an honest hon-est regard for permanence, beauty and efficiency. Washington Heights offers the lowest-priced residence property in Ogden. Consider that statement. state-ment. It surprises some people who have not given the subject thorough thought. The real, incontrovertible in-controvertible i .cts sue that the best property in the district is offered to you today at $12 to $15 a front foot, including all im- I provements, while you can pur- J chase lots at this time in Washington Wash-ington Heights for as little as $3 a front foot.
