OF ACQUI ING FIM HOLDS liN T E HEAkT OF AUCKLAND. GEO. W. BINNEY, FAVORED with instructions from Captain Henry Burton, will sell by auction, on the ground, on Wednesday, the 13th October, at 12 o'clock, the following splendid properties:— Hobson and Cook-streets: 13 Building Allotments. Very Superior 12-roomed Dwelling-house, Coach-house, Stable, &c, and Section on which same are situate. Nelson-street : 7 Building Allotment?. ', This is a chance rarely to be met with for persons to acquire Freeholds in the City, so close to the main centres of population, with all the advantages of the suburbs. Among others which thispropery posssesse-j are the following :— The construction of the Graving Dock on the re claimed ground at tho foot of Hobpon-street; the con tinuation of Custom-house-street to Nelsen aud Hob son-streets, the whole to be properly graded. The Harbour Board reclamation in Freeman's Bay —all being now undertaken, and in course of comple tion—alike point to the certainty of au increase in value of the properties immediately in tlie neighbour hood of these improvements. While the outlay of capital on other works for the benefit of the Port of Auckland must result in making Hobson-street (from its superior elevation and improved gradient*) the principal outlet for the immense traffic to be created and sustained by really reproductive works such as the above have in other places proved themselves to be. The property must in a few years, from its superior natural advantages, rival, if not excel, in value that of Queen-street, and the lucky possessor will then obtain annually a sum equivalent to the fee simple of to-day ; and' not least, the very liberal terms offered by the vendor enable the energetic pushing nlan of business, with limited capital, successfully to compete with others of larger means. To sum up, as an investment this offers all Ihe prize, With nor.c of the risks of mining speculation. The Block is sub-divided, so as to give section holders the advantage of a double frontage wherever possible. Lithographic Plans of the property may tie obtained at the office of the Auctioneer, where a plan on a large Bcale is on view. Luncheon provided.
