Advantages to Real Estate In the Two Com
rnunities-Relative Elevated Travel and
Earnlnes-New York Dividends.
Now that Brooklyn has two elevated railroad
systems In complete operation. which between
them pretty thoroughly cover That big town,
there Is an interesting opportunity for COM
pnrison between the New York and BROOKLYN
elevated roads. the OBJECT on the real estate
values OF the two cities. and tho traffic and
earnings which tho New York system shows
rs compared with the two companies operat-
ing roads in Brooklyn. OF course the COM
parison is more or less one-sided. for the ele-
waited roads OF New York have been In opera
tion practically as they are to-day since 1890
while the Brooklyn roads nave been completed
but two or three years. In New York
much OF tho territory was already
built up through which the roads ran.
but In brooklyn the elevated roads have large
ly been extended into parts Of Brooklyn hut
sparsely settled. Tho first road built in Brook
Ign. the Brooklyn Elevated. was built off from
the main lines OF travel in the down town part
OF the city. and 1t was several years he fore tho
uptown portion was built up sufficiently to
bring in profitable business There arc very
few points on Manhattan Island which cannot
be conveniently reached from the elevated
lines. but In Brooklyn. which spreads out like
q fan. there are large sections which receive
no benefit from the elevated roads. In conse-
auence the increase In real estate values in
New York duo to tho presence of the elevated
roads has been general. while In Brooklyn It
has been in the height orhood OF the elevated
roads themselves.
The first elevated railroad built In New Yorl;
city was the structure along Greenwich and
Ninth avenues to Thirty first street in lNEl
This was operated by cable. n dummy, and
three cars making UP the rolling stock. This
road was gradually lengthcned until, in 1877
IL extended from South Forry to Fifty-pinth
street. 1t was of the regular lines OF travel
however. and it was not well patronized. In
tho spring OF 1873 tho work on the pres-
Ont system Of elevated roads was begun In
june 1874. trains were running on the Sixth
avenue rond to Fifty eighth street and by tle
end Of the following yeenr to 155th street and
In operation to the Grand Central Depot in
year to l2ath street. Tho Second avenue line
was built in 1881
Prior to 1879. which marks the practical
real estate values in many wards had shown
marked decrense. Particularly in tho First.
Second. Sixth seventh. and t9urtsenth Of the
Twenty-fourth OF the uptown wards. the de-
cline had been very noticeable. The following
table. compiled from the Tax Commissioners
reports. shows the increase or decrease in
the ward valuations for the years 1875. 1871
1877. and 1879, respectively. over tho rreyious
year. The figures in italics indicate decrease:
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1892-12-25

In 1878 valuations were decreased in twalvs
wards. and the total net increase for the year
over 1877 was only S5.79l 900. for half of
which the Nineteenth ward was respnna iblr
In 1877 the valuations in the Twelfth ward
had been marked down nearly million and a
half and in 1878 they were scaled down Snla :
coo more. But the va uations for 1919 show
n marked change all along the line. Only i've
wards have decreases to show for that year
and these are not large The Seventh ward
lying along tho East River. probably received
the least benefit from the elevated road, and
shows the greatest decrease. $751; 100 In
1880 but two wards show u decrease and lie

sharpest contrast Is noticed in the Twelfth
ward. which shows an increase in real est ate
