Auctions as a business site, it ranks second to none in city. The main line of tramway runs past the Willis-street frontage, which is opposite the great thoroughfare, while its close proximity to the shipping, wharves. Customs, telegraph, and post offices, render it especially valuable as a site for merchants, hanking, insurance, and other public companies, clubs, hotels, &c. Having a WATER FRONTAGE to the harbor, and being part of the land originally reclaimed by the Provincial Government, when operations are carried on for further reclaiming, the purchaser of this property will be entitled to considerable compensation, or an increased area of land on the new street. Immediate possession can be given. The TERMS, which are exceedingly easy (a very small sum in cash being required) can be ascertained on application to the Auctioneer, Lambton-quay.
