HARCOURT & CO. are instructed to sell by publio auction, at their rooms, 48, Lambton-quay, on Tuesday, 18th May— That Valuable Freehold Estate, part of Town Sections 729, 731, 733, and 735, containing about O AC. 08. j KPER., with a frontage of 338 feet to TASMANSTREET, by a depth of 264, feet. The greater part of this land has been let nntil lately to the Wellington Tramway Co., but as it has now beoome available for immediate occupation, tho owners have resolved to sell. Situated close to the corner of Douglas Wallace-street, tho land is but two minutes' walk from the tramway in Adelaide-road, and five minutes' from the Basin Reserve, adistrict so readily accessible that dwellings erected here should immediately find tenants. It is contiguous with the Chinaman's garden, lately sold, and through which it is proposed to lay out a 66 feet street running from Ade-laide-road to Tasman-street. In the course of a feW years the acquisition of any such largo area of building land close to the line of tramway and within similar distance from the City centre, will have become a natural impossibility. The opportunity therefore cannot fail to recommend itself to capitalists who foresee the continuous development of this City and the increasing pressure of its population. Should the land not be sold in one lot, the level portion, containing over one acre and three-quarters, with 66 feet frontage to Tasman-street, will be sold in one lot, and tho Tasman-street frontages, 39 feet by 100 feqfc deep, will be sold singly at prices which will ensure a sale.
