At the present time there are between

Eighth avenue is the Broadway of the
west side of New York. 1t is more truly
the New York Of the old days than any
other thor0ughfare in the city. None

cosmopolitan. The lower part of it
from Abingdon square to Twenty third
streets not progressive. Most of the
proDerty belongs to big estates, like the
Aston and the Trinity corporation, and
the houses are as old as the hills for the
most part. 1t is n common saying that
Twenty-third street is only one block

the United States. 1t is the Vanity Fair
of New York, the great shops represent
ing the tribute derived from the feminine
love of show. This one block is essen
italy womans block. The finery, the
manicures, corset makers. hair dresSers,
photographers. are all for her. This is
true chiefly of the south side of the
street On the north side are few
vanity shops, but most of them are more
solid, going in for furniture and things

shops. boarding houses and tencments
dominate Fourteenth street, along with
few dives, churches, the Salvation
Army headquarters, an armory and
crowds from the suburbs. 1t is typical
of the New York of twenty years ago,
and, although it has changed tremen.
dously, as has every thoroughfare in the
city, il retains much of it's old character.
