Replace Dwelling at No.
$40 Fifth Avenue.

Plans were filed yesterday for twelve
story apartment house TO be erected at
$40 Fifth avenue. northeast corner Of
Sixty-second street, from plans drawn
by Hoffman & Hoffman, architects. Ac-
cording to the data in the Office of the
Superintendent of Building the owner of
the property is Mrs. Florence B. Fish

Social Register, however. gives $40 Fifth

the project is 100000.
This is only one of number Of similar
plans filed since the Board of Estimate
passed it's amendment to the coming
ordinance limiting the height of houses
on the avenue opposite the park so as to
prevent the building of any more tall
apartments. The plans are evidently be-
ing filed on the chance that this amend
ment will be set aside on the submission
of proof that 90 per cent. or more of the
property holders in the area are opposed
to the change.
If certain of the proposed projects are
carried through practically the entire
block front to the south of the Fish house

with the exception of the Knickerbocker

ner of the avenue and Sixty-second
