TO ENLARGE HOSPITAL
St. JoSeph'S viii Be Completed
as Originally Planned.
WORK WILL COST $4,000
Structure Is Virtually Two
Buildings Under One
Roof.

The new ST Joseph Hospital Is on the
Rockaway Turnpike or old Broadway.
The present structure comprises only
part Of the proposed hospital The main
administration building and one solarlum
Is up
When the building is completed it will
have two solariums. To carry out the
original plans IT was necessary TO launch
q campaign for 10000 few days ago.
In the rear Of the administration build
ing are to be medical and surgical wards
on one side for women and similar wards
on the other side for men
There are now about thirty rooms in the
administration building and they are used
by public and private patients because of
the lack Of any ward space. This placing
Of patients will end when the building is
completed as originally planned.
II was expected that most occupants of
the rooms would contribute toward the
support of the hospital but this order Of
affairs will not go into effect until the
medical and surgical wards for men and
women are built and ready for use
The hospital was opened by the Sisters
Of 81. Joseph about twelve years ago, the
old home being "A frame cottage on Cen
trail avenue. II was necessary to put up
tho modern hospital i'm order that the SIS
tiers might take care OF all the sick that
applied to them for surgical or medical
attendance. The old hospital building is
still standing and is now used by the
Sisters as their Far Rockaway home.
The new hospital was built from plans by
Edward \. Lehman and Thomas
OKane. jr The facade is Of bun brick,
white terra Gotta with red tile roof
The building is virtually two distinct
structures under one roof There Ia ono
side entirely for men and the other en-

tradespeople From the railroad station
10 the Conasa avenue stores is but a
short walk
The choicest lots i'm the business section
Of Central avenue are valued by experts
AT from 500 up front foot. or course.
such front foot rates do not extend over
long distance, as the best business part
Of Central avenue comprises about four
blocks
Houses with all modern improvements
are rented AT Far Rockaway from 500
To $1,000 a year. Figuring the rental
price to represent a 10 per cent valua-
ton Of the properties. the houses have
a market worth OF about from $500 10
$4,000
Far Rockaway is growing fastest in a
residential way toward Lawrence. in
other words. it is expanding most rapidly
as home place I'm an eastery direction.
In the choicest home sections the home
sites usually comprise two or more lots
and the prices paid for such plots is
from 5000 to $500 each.
Soms OF the best located lots In the old
Far Rockaway section are for sale at
about 5000 a lot
The lots IN the old village district are
still sold at a square foot rate. the pre-
vaillng price being from 81 to 81 25 n
square foot.
Far Rockaway has many alluring home
sections. one is the lower Central ave
nue. district another the old Broadway
region. another the Ostend district, an
other Bayswater, and Point Breeze, be-
sides the Crescent and Wave Crest
At the Crescent. which is west of Os-
tend. there are about three thousand sub
stantially built houses. many Of them
close to the ocean front.
The beach at Far Rockaway has un-
dergone considerable improvement by the
shifting tides In the last twenty years. In
the rear Of the present beach line there
used to be large inlet on which big cat
boats and some other pleasure craft had
ample sailing grounds. That big inlet
was filled in by the ocean currents carry
ing sand inward
To-day the beach AT Far Rockaway is
almost solidly Joined to the mainland
the only reminder OF the big inlet being
n little stream over which is a trestle
used by the trolley cars that run from
the railroad station to the beach.
The important building activity recent.
ly at Far Rockaway has not been in the
old village section. but near the Law

opposite the home Of the National Bank
of Far Rockaway.
Another sign of the changing building
times a. Far Rockaway is the recent
/ opening Of the Columbia Theatre in
Central avenue This theatre was not
built TO cater 10 summer visitors only,
but TO be an all-year-round play house.
II is one Of the most substantial the
atre buildings erected I'm recent years
in the Borough Of Queens, of which
Far Rockaway is part. II was built
by the Roanoke Amusement Company.
The theatre is devoted 10 vaudeville acts.
II has a seating capacity Of 100.
Another sign of the new building
epoch which Far Rockaway IS entering
is the leasing from the plans for five
years of the new house just completed
for John Reid, Of the well-known build
ing firm of NJ Reid & co. The house
is on Mcneil avenue and will be ready
for occupancy October !. 1t was de-
signed by Thomas O'Kane jr. one Of the
leading architects of this city.
Mr.. O'Kane told Tribune reporter last
week he was very confident that the day
had arrived when well located and nicely
put up apaI tment houses could be profit;
ably rented At Far Rockaway. lie further
said that at the present increase OF per
manent residents Far Rockaway would Ia
the near future be one Of the most invit-
ing all-year sections Of the greater city,
and that shopkeepers would not feel the
passing of the summer season as much as
they do now.
Mr.. O'Kane has often shown his iaith
in the realty future Of Far RochaWaJ.
He erected. about three years ago. the
O'Kane Building. on Mott avenue, near
the railroad station. That is the tallest
office structure along the Rockaway
peninsuar and without doubt one Of the
most artistic Office structures erected In
the metropolitan region in many years. II
was put up for all-year tenancy and Is
almost entirely rented. II has forty-five
Offices. Of which thirty are occupied.
The offices rent from so TO 81 month.
The building is modern in every respect
and is supplied with elevator service.
The new home Of the National Bank Of
Far Rockaway is another evidence Of the
transition Of Far Rockaway from a CEN
tire almost exclusively in a summer pleas
ure class to one with vigorous all-year
home zones. II seems almost needless 10
say that better banking building would
be hard to ind. Under the roof Of the

the changing characteristics Of building
