C0STLIEST LAND
IN AMERICA SOLD
No. i Wall Street, New York,
Brings 1928 a, Square
Foot.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service. -.
New York, June 1.-THE highest price
ever paid for land in this city, $500 a
a square foot, was given today Tor the
famous Gilman corner at wall street
and Broadway. L. E. Anderson, vice
president Of the Merchants Trust COM
pany Of St. Louis, bought the property.
For the corner plot containing l,l2O
square feet he paid 100000. It was
sold by the estate Of the late Benjamin
D.. Sifliman The Sillimar corner
fronts 1910 feet on Broadway and 59.lO
on Wall street. It faces Trinity church.
The First National bank stands on the
opposite northeast corner. AS No. 1
Wall street, the. property has always
been regarded as a unique and ,senti-
mentally valuable possession.
The next highest figure on record IN
connection with real estate transactions
in this city was that paid in 1872 by
Anthony J. Drexel for the site Of the
Morgan Banking r. house at Broad Rndr a mh4
$34867, a square foot:
Said the attorney who conducted the
trust company's negotiations:
~ have not the slightest doubt that !
have secured for our clients the most
valuable piece ofSs.real estate in the
whole world, there is only one Broadway
and one Wall street, and No. Wall
street on earth. It is likely the pres
ent lease will be allowed to run to a
close. Then Of course, the property
will be improved in manner in keep
ing with its value and location.'
For many years/a drugstore occupied
the store room on the corner which
faces Old Trinity. Recently a cigar
company obtained this room, and now
holds a lease for three years. The building
is an old fashioned, four story brick, al
most lost to view among towering sky
scrapers. 1t was erected more than
seventy five years ago.
It was bought by one Of the silliman
family in 1927 at cost of $1S,275. It
has remained in the family's possession
I since then. The oldest existing deed
in connections with the plot dates from
the beginning of the eighteenth century,
when it was sold for $500 by a Dutch
settler to an enterprising Irishman.
Benjamin Silliman, who died in 1901,
leaving the property to a sister, refused
many fabulous offers for the ground.
One instance is related of joker hav-
| ing offered him gold coins enough to
cover the entire ground, to which he
agreed providing they were set up on
edge. A
