VALUE OF CITY PROPERTY IN 1566 AND IN 1866.
"In the year 1566 Sir Thomas Gresham proposed to the
corporation of London to erect, at his own expense, •
commodious building for merchants to meet and transact
their busines., provided the corporation would provide •
convenient and suitable spot for the same. The City,
readily acquiescing in this proposal, purchased Lei houses
which formedtwo courts leading fromeornhill intoThread-
need le-street , calkd New Saint Christopher-alley and Swan-
alley, for 3,532/., and sold the old materials of these
houses for 4781."—(Harrison's History of London). The
ground occupied by the present building in about 40,000
feet super, the above pr ice would therefore be about le. lid.
per foot. The prurient value of the site, at • low esti-
mate, is at least 20i. per foot, or 800,0001., being an
imams of 2,6601. par year= an aeigiaal outlay of 3,000 t.
