so rapid was the march OF business
up Broadway that within n few years
the Werdel building was in the heart
OF New iork's all day and all night life
and one or the most sought after and
desirable corners In the vicinity

Wendell Estate however. to select their
tenants with great care. Restaurant
prorrlctors and va~ Wv amusement and
business enterpri' = have made efforts
during recent yc. . to secure this de-
sirable site. but always to no avail.
