SINGLE HOUSE OR FLAT :?
NINETY SIXTH ST

Just now people who returning from the
country are looking for homes In small houses for
the winter season. Some have an idea that small
houses are more easily and economically conducted
than fat apartment with an equal number OF
rooms. An argument IL made in opposition to this
idea in favor OF the modern apartmenthouse, where
all the conyeniences are on one floor and the fatigue
OF going up and down stairs Is averted.
The matter OF transportation enters into this
question. Attention has been called recently TO the
completion OF a apartment-house at No. tl5
Fifrh-ave., connecting by private entrance over
a ire-proos bridge with the buckingham Hotel, at
Flfth-ave and Fiftieth-st. The fnishings Of this
