Plans have been drawn for a twelve
story office building to replace the Es-
seX Lyceum, at Clinton and Beaver

namely, an unobstructed frontage on

The new building will have a 'front.'

about lis feet on Essex court. formerly
known as Littell place.
The Essex Lyceum was Originally
used by the First Congregational
Church, and is one of the landmarks
of the city, After the church moved
into its new home. at Clinton avenue
and Wright street, the Lyceum was sole
to Philip N. jackson. He reconstructe6
1t, and it was then used as a public
hall where many social events and con
ventions were held. In June, 1907, this
property was sold to Lesser Lehman, 70,
the Union Building Company.
The building was erected in 1884, and
in its early days was used as a meet
ing place for abo~litionists, in addition
to its use as a church. In late years il
was the billiard-room and bowling
alleys of the Newark Athletic Club
and it's most recent use was as a roller
