Homes, with hotel features are
steadily growing in popularity with
New Workers. The success which has
attended the renting of the Esplanade,
the new tifteen-story apartment hotel
at the northwest corner of West End
Avenue and Seventy-fourth Street,
overlooking the Charles Schwab house,
and other apartment hotels indicates
the high regard in which these mod
ern homes are held New York
dwellers.
The Esplanade is 60 per cent rented
M. G. Mayer, who, with j. C. Mayer and
several others, paid price of approx
mateiy $2,500,000 for the structure
about two weeks ago, said the building
would have been entirely rented by this
time if the owners had not been most
circumspect in selecting their tenancy.
The character of the people who live
in the house, and the large amount of
money represented in the investment
warrant that tenants accepted be of the
best.
The house has been divided into one,
two and three rooms. Suites of more
than three rooms have also been ar
ranged for tenants who want larger
premises. Some tenants have seven
rooms. Three regular sized suites,
t,at is one, two and three-room apart
ments, are to be furnished by the own
ers to show what can be done with
these rooms, the smallest of which is
13 feet wide and 21 feet long.
House Completed Last October
The apartment was completed last
October and soon after tenants began
to move into tbs structure. Those who
live in the house and those who are
coming to live in the house will pay a
total rental of 100000 q year. The
apartments in the building are rented
by the. year and unfurnished, which
gives them the necessary home feeling
Four fine elevators connect the diff
ferent floors with the street floor, on
which is restaurant, lounge, writing
rooms and other features of the best
hotels in the city. The restaurant
management is under agreement to
serve meals to tenants in their apart
ments, whether it be breakfast, lunch
or dinner.
The. house has natural light on all
sides, feature that has cost the own
ers lot Of money. Additional prop
erty had to be secured on both the
north and west sides of the big build
ing, SO that this light would not be in
