JERSEY OITY'S NEW CITY HALL.
The Building, Which Is an Imposing
One, Rapidly Nearing Completion.

(FTOm 1QG f1iiduCidl REVIEW diu buliu-
ing Record.")
The rapid progress recently made in
Jersey City in the matter OF public
improvements has awakened a feeling of
genuine and gratifying surprise for
which various reasons have been as
signed, and yet the real explanation
is found in the suddenly awakened en-
terprise of its citizens. who have at last
realized that their city, owing to its
proximity to the Metropolis. its posi-
ton as a railroad centre, and its many
commercial advantages. is one Of the
most important in the United States.
This awakening has already been pro-
ductive of great changes and the re-
suit is that the city is no longer spoken
Of in derision or referred to in terms
of sarcasm The old buildings which
for so long a time disgraced and dis
inquired its principal t~horoughfares have
disappeared, and in their place hand
some structures of modern design have
been erected. The streets, for the most
part. are well paved. severed and light
ed, while the transit facilities. owing to
the Introduction of the trolley system.
are adequate and satisfactory.
In every direction there has been a
radical change for the better, the prac-
creased population and an augmented
material prosperity. But probably the
most notable Improvement of all is
and imposing structure, which is rap
idly nearing completion, occupies an en-
tire block, and is artistic in design. Its
general scope and plan is an admirable
one, and the building will prove amply
sufficient to meet all municipal require
ments. Thu architect, Mr.. Broome. well
deserves the praise bestowed IN him,
| not only for the taste and general eX-
| eellence of his design but also for the
care he has exercised in awarding con-
! tracts for the execution of the work.
In matters of this kind, involving the
expenditure of large sums of the public
money, experience has shown that archi-
| tects are not SO careful as they ought
10 be. and the result is that work OF
the most important character is often
| carelessIy carried out, necessitating an
additional expense for repairs and the
| r~ectification of plumbers. But Mr..
| Rrcome has made a notable departure
in this respect and has exercised great
care and discrimination in the selection
of men to carry OUT his ideas.
The fact was very forcibly impressed
upon our reporter during a recent visit
to the scene of operations. He found
| that every detail of the work was be-
ing faithfully carried out and the ma
terial used of the best character. The
roofing and cornjce work in particular
amined it closely, being an expert of
many years experience. and he failed
TO discover any cause whatever for criti-
cisnl. On the contrary. the thorough
ness of the work and the skillful man
ner in Which It was being carried out
were unusual in undertakings OF this
l character. where the main object seems
to be haste, to secure which every con-
s.deration is sacrificed.
