PROSPECTUS

The want of adequate space at the present Exchange,—
the impossibility that the late proposed enlargement of the
building, if it had been carried into effect, could have af-
forded more than a temporary accommodation,—the in-
convenience felt by the mercantile body in general from
the present building being now so remote from the great
mass of warehouses and offices,—the obvious incongruity
of an Exchange being situated in the shopping, instead of
the mercantile district,—these irremediable deficiences,
as regards both site and accommodation, and the conse-
quent necessity which exists for a building conveniently
situated, and commensurate with the increased wants of
the town, have induced the promoters of this undertaking
to lay the project before the public.
Amongst the sites which have been under consideration,
two have appeared the most desirable for the erection of
an Exchange. These localities are—a site bounded by
Market-street, Palace-street, Cannon-street, and High-
street ; and a site bounded by Mosley-street, Charlotte-
street, Fountain-street, and York-street. Each of these
sites has its own peculiar. advantages, but on comparing
their respective merits, the latter has been selected, with
the approbation of a large majority of the mercantile in-
tere-ts, as decidedly the most suitable, and pre-eminently
adapted for the proposed Exchange.
Situated in the very focus of the warehouse and com-

mercial district, this site is of easy access in every direc-
tion, and is immediately contiguous to the banks, and the
majority of the public buildings. It is less remote than
the other site from the populous district of Chorlton-
upon-Medlock and the neighbourhood ; and by an in-
tended access to the Fountain-street entrance, from King-
street, its proximity to the higher districts of the borough
of Salford, in which the class frequenting the Exchange
chiefly reside, will be the same, within a very short dis-
tance, as that of the present building.
The area of the site now proposed exceeds considerably
that of the London Royal Exchange. The chief object of
this association being to erect a building available for the
Present and prospective mercantile wants of the town, to
that end the attention and energies of the committee will

proposed structure, it is the
the first talent in the kingdi

itention to call to their aid

Together with the tiection of an ample Exchange and
News-room, endeavours will be made to meet the other
.se rl.o fescon and tr. clinnlit 1,11111111 adapted for the

most important public purposes.
Arrangements having been entered into for the pur-
chase of the present Exchange, the Provisional Commit-
tee of these projected improvements look forward with
the greatest confidence to a speedy and effectual realiza-

tion-of their object.
