CENTRAL MIRAMAR. IN THE VERY HEART OF THIS SPLENDID SUBURB OE MIRAMAR (Until lately known as the GOLF LINKS BLOCK), To be Sold by Public Auction by W. F. SHORTT, Ltd., At their Land Mart. ' WILLIS-STREET, WELLINGTON. On MONDAY EVENING, 30th SEPTEMBER, 1907, at 7.30 o'clock. T" THE FINEST BUSINESS SITES AND THE HANDIEST SECTIONS IN THE WHOLE EXTENT OF MIRAMAR. A RARE OPPORTUNITY FOR GILTEDGED SPECS. rjHHIS magnificent Central Miramar JL Estate lies as level as a billiardtable with a frontage along the entire length of its southern and western sides to the Seatoun and Miramax tramways respectively. The tramlines diverge east and north on reacning the Central Miramar Block, so that it lies sandwiched between tral Miramar is more than three minutes' walk from the electric trams. No finer opportunity for profita-ble investment has been offered the public since Miramar first came into the market. Central Miramar, from its position, is tho natural centre of Wellington's chief suburb. Here will be situated its shops and warehouses in the future and its leading public institutions. No other block within the wide extent of Miramar offers such advantages to the investor. Its seotions will always be eagerly sought after, and must rise rapidly in value. Central Miramar, in short, is not only the 'heart of Miramar, but is in closest touch with the City, with Seatoun, and with Miramar North. If you want an ideal site for a resi. dence, requiring no outlay whatever in excavation and with the tramway to your very door, Central Miramar is the place for you. - Central Miramar has the most fertile land in the district. The Boil was carefully prepared and enrichpd by the Messrs. Crawford Bros, for their agricultural operations. Every foot of it has been systematically tilled. If you want to be handy to the seaside, get a section in Central Mirama-r. Close handy lies Lyell Buy, the Ocean Beach par excellence of the Empire City. Less than five minutos' ride in the tram will carry you through tho tunnel to the marine suburb of Seatoun. Miramar is far and away tho most rapidly progressive suburb of Wellington. Within a few years it will carry a population of 25,000, and there is ample room for four times tho number. Miramar will have the advantage of a first-class drainage system. The main sewer of the Wellington City drainage works runs through it to the open sea in Cook Strait. Miramar is to have also the full advantage of the Wellington City water supply. Arrangements are now being made to that end. Miramar already has the electric light, and ia likewise to be the headquarters of the Wellington Gas Company. This wealthy company has lately purchased fourteen acres of land near the Miramar Wharf, with the ultimate intention of establishing there its works and getting its coal supplies brought direct to the suburb. Most of the Gas Company's employees will therefore havo their homes in Miramar in the near futura. Miramar is unique in the fact that it is the only Metropolitan suburb in New Zealand that is linked up with the city by both ferry and tram services. The people have the choice of carriage by either steamer or tram, and competition will thus always ensure cheap rates. Miramar wharf is being enlarged to accommodate larger needs. The water is 6O deep that the biggest oeoan liners whioh come to the port of Wellington can berth alongside at any state of the tide. At no distant time its sea-borne goods will bo delivered at its own wharf. Miramar is already the playground of the Empire City. A Wonderland, outshining the one connected with the Chrißtchuroh Exhibition, is now being constructed at an outlay of £15,000. Tenders aro being called for the building of an ample Skating Rink. The Park will afford playing room for all the cricket, football, and hockey olubs in Wellington. Polo albo has its home there. Miramar is far and away the most lightly rated and tho healthiest suburb in the whole district. The rates are only ljd iri ,the £, as against ?£d in the £ in tho City. It is confidently believed that with water and drainage provided for, there will be a reduction even on the present abornmally low rates. Tho residents praise its salubrity, and no epidemic has ever found lodgment there. Miramar, in short, is destined to rapidly grow into a self-contained city. And this Central Miramar Estato, now being off c ted to the public, .must of neceasity be tho very heart of it, where its busy marta, its lines, of shops and warehouses, and its most important institutions will bo planted.
