WILLBUILD HOTEL
COMMONWEALTH
Only Half of Giant Broadway
Structure to Be Erected
for the Present.

That work on the long delayed COM
monwealth Hotel, to be built entirely
by popular stock subscription. may be
started soon was learned yesterday by
THE NEW YORK HERALD. Tenants living
in apartment houses and dwellings on
the north side of Fifty-ffth street be-
tween Seventh avenue and Broadway
have been notified that expiring leases
will not be renewed. The properties
affected by these notices constitute
about one-half Of the block front be-
tween Seventh avenue and Broadway,
which gave rise yesterday to a belief
that the Commonwealth Hotel Construc-
ton Company has decided that it will
not put UP the colossal structure which
II first contemplated TO cover the entire
block bounded by Broadway. Fifty-fifth
and Fifty-sixth streets and Seventh
avenue.
AS originally planned, this 2.50o room
hostelry was to cover the ground occu-
pied by the eleven story Sonoma at the
northeast corner of Broadway and
Fifty-ffth street, the seven story Van
Corlear apartments at the northwest
corner of Seventh avenue and Fifty
hfth street, extending through to Fifty
sixth street. and the seven story Rock
ingham at the southeast corner of
Broadway and Fifty-sixth street, as
we'll as three smaller fats and dwellings
on Fifty-fifth street and several unim-
proved lots on the south side of Fifty
sixth street. The cost as estimated
two or three years ago was Sl5.00o.000.
%. l.. Barnett, Inc, the fiscal agents
for the Commonwealth Construction
Company. announced late in 1918 that
1t had taken title to the last parcels
needed to complete the site. This was
the Van Corlear apartments. which
were secured from the Clark estate.
w. G. Hoggson. president Of E. l..
Barnett & Co., could not be reached
yesterday, but 1t was learned that the
plan which has probably been adopted
is to improve the eastern half of the
site for hotel purposes at present, and
later, when building costs are lower and
1t will easier to swing the project. the
promoters will improve the other half.
This plan is being followed at pres
ent by the Standard Oil Company. which
is having plans drawn for thirty-two
story structure with tower to cover
all its leaseholds along Broadway
through to New and Beaver streets.
Work on the new building, however, has
been started only at the northwest cor
ner of New and Beaver streets. Even
ing the original 26 Broadway, will be
covered by building that will be, so to
speak, erected on the instalment plan.
