CTTY IMPROVEMENTS, So Why is the cOnstruc-

by the tearing down of several tenements in Broad

modlous hotel " Because" answered the work.
man, There's not brick in New York to be OBJ
tanned for building purposes" The enquirer looked
as'onlshed at such an avowa and well he might
at any other period, for wears gone by, but had he
passed an hour or two in ascertaining the cause
by enqulring among builders, he would have found
that at no period since 1892, has there been as
many houses In erection as at present We have
taken some little trouble to ascertain the number 90
ing up, and can safely set them down at nearly one
thousand We have also enqured into the causes
that have prompted capitalists thus to invest their
funds, and the investigation has shown, that in
nearly every instance, the increase of our popula-
ton and the natural growth of business in oul
tourlshing emporium, have formed the basis, and
that, therefore, no idle or wild spirit of specua-
ton has prompted their action. In many instances
the hotels, and other places of business about to be
erected, have been leased to occupants for term
OF years, at rents yielding a handsome per centage
tor the outlay; and rarely can a new unoccupied
dwelling be found, even # finished since the first
OF May, which is our annual moving day This
exhibits healthy state of affairs in our city, and
although the brokers and croakers of Wall street
may get up an excitement among ihsmselves-run
