What About flay Street?

Just as Hohman street is the main artery of traffic which reaches down into the rapidly developed South Side of Mam mond-so May Street reaches out into the thrifty and marvelously delveloping sections of the GREAT EAST SIDE. VALUES ON THE MAIN THOROUGHFARES ARE ALWAYS HIGHER. Take Hohman Street: where values are $60.00 to $75.00 a front foot as compared with the side streets $v-here they are $30.00 a front foot at the highest. HERE IS MAY STREET, RUNNING SOUTH-EASTERLY AND NORTH-WESTERLY, RIGHT TOWARDS THE HEART OF HAMMOND, AVOIDING ALL RAILROAD CROSSINGS, A BROAD WELL PAVED HIGHWAY. First it picks uptthe great main artery to the country districts, COLUMBIA AVENUE, and feeds its growing burdens of traffic into the heart of the City. Then it picks up Howard Avenue, Carroll Street, Tapper and Rohde Avenues and pours all of their traffic into Calumet Avenue and on into the down town districts.

THERE IS THE HAMMOND MALLEABLE IRON CO., NOW ONE OF OUR MOST RAPIDLY GROWING INDUSTRIES, EMPLOYING 500 MEN AND PAYING BIG WAGES. THSRE IS THE CENTRAL RAILWAY SIGNAL CO., WHICH NEVER CLOSES DOWN. THERE IS THE GIBSON YARDS WHERE LARGE FORCES ARE ALWAYS EMPLOYED AT HIGH WAGES. THERE IS THE STANDARD PRESSED STEEL CO., WHICH HAS RECENTLY LOCATED JUST EAST OF THIS PROPERTY. All of these industries are close to May Street and yet not too close to spoil it as a high grade residential district. BIG MAY STREET LOT SALE
