is the half-mile strip Of Broadway be.
tween Battery place and Vesey street

Beaver and Ann streets on the souther-
~ side. Though there are few real
estate men who care to assume the re-
sponsibility of attempting to name an
actual value for this wonderful piece
of land, there are those who aver that
$500, 100000 would be an extremely low
sum. The ground covers about eighteen
acres, and on it are the largest and
most costly skyscrapers ever put to-
gether. '"While the assessed value Of
this property is in the neighborhood of
$50, 100000, it is safe to multiply the
assessors figures by three" said a
downtown broker; then any sane man
would add many millions more to get
the real value"
