Real Estate Improvements.—S. B. Cobb, Esq., is about to erect, on Lake street and Michigan avenue, a marble front block, containing five stores. The building will be five stories in height, and a basement excavated under the street and alley. The plans are not as perfected, but as soon as they are, the building will be commenced without delay. Three of the stores have already been leased at rental of $6,500, and since the agreement was signed another of $1,000 additional has been made. Property is worth Something in Chicago.
