1t will not be the loftiest here. the
Metropolitan tower being over 657 feet

Skyscrapers Torn Down to Make
Room for Loftier Ones.
Notable Example Is Willingness of
Owners to Wreck Nineteen-Story
GiIlender Building, Together
With Structure Adjoining.

New York.-Fifth avenue supplies a
notable example of the slowness with
which public work proceeds here, as
elsewhere. The new public library,
which fills the plot from Fortieth to
Forty-second street, and which has
been building during the last IL
years at cost of ss.O000O0 or more,
is not finished. although huge struc-
lures for private owners are erected
in New York more rapidly than any
where else in the world. Looking at
the public library pile. a beautiful
gray structure, one is reminded of the
leisurely manner In which the San
Francisco postofice was built Sew
eral months ago the completion of the
library was mistakenly set for May
1. 1t may be opened year hence.
An episode attending the transfer
nation of Fifth avenue from a resi-
dence street into a lively business
thoroughfare is the tearing down of
two four-story houses at the corner
of Thirty-seventh street, which had
been among the city's best mansions
half century ago. to avoid payment
of further taxes on them. On account
of the change in the character of the
avenue the houses had become unde-
sirable as residences. and were un-
occupied. and as they brought in no
revenue the tax saving in this heav-
lily taxed city was deemend worth
while. The land is held for business
purposes, and an offer of 81, ,600. 900 for
the IA feet frontage was refused some
time ago. The imposing mansions Of
the Vanderbilts and their relatives on
Fifth avenue, each worth big for
tune, are now surrounded by marts of
trade, and are seldom occupied. Across
the street from the lordly residences
of the head OF the Vanderbilt family
has been reared an apartment house.
on which hangs the sign "Housekeep-
ing Apartments to Let"
Often In New York large buildings
have been torn down to make way for
taller edifices. The most notable ex-
ample of the willingness of New York
ers to destroy In order to rebuild is
afforded at present in the downtown
financial district. where the 19-story
Gillender building, at the corner of
Nassau and Wall streets. which was
erected between IL and 13 years ago
at a cost of $500.O00 is being demol-
lshed, together with an eight-story
building adjoining 1t. SO that on the
