New York Is Ready
To Put Up 10000
Visitors ANY Day
Often Accommodations Are
inadequate; Manhattan
Has Lost 81 Hotels i'm
Last Twenty-Five Years

The list of New York's first class
hotels at present, compiled from the
official handbook of this business,
shows 1872 buildings. with total of
$500 rooms. The hotel manager usu-
ally figures his total capacity at one
third more than his total number of
rooms, therefore New York is prepared
to accommodate just about $4,000 trav-
elers each day of the year. Several
times this number of transients are in
the greater city every day.
The history of Manhattan shows that
new projections of any kind, often
seemingly made years in advance of
the times, has upon completion not
been large enough to handle the BUSH
ness due to increased growth of the
city. This is as true of hotels as of
transportation facilities and other big
businesses.
Hotel Center Has Shifted
The hotel zones have repeatedly
changed with the growth of the city
northward, due to changes in trans
portation facilities. Broadway, srom
Canal Street to Fourteenth Street, was
the center of hotel life from 1876 to
1885. Twenty-third to Thirtyfhird
StreelS was III us uSy-uey looD 10
1895, when the Forty-second Street
section took the lead At this time
Broadway, from Thirtieth to Thirty
fourth streets, was slowly dying as a
hotel neighborhood, until the opening
of the Pennsylvania Terminals. The
opening of the Hotel McAlpin, in 1919,
was the stroke which began the re-
juvenation Of the Thirty-fourth Street
section. Skeptics had predicted that
it would never succeed--it was too
large, it would be turned into an Office
building inside Of six months, the
neighborhood would never support q
tirst-class hotel of this kind. were somc
of the remarks heard--for it was then
lust bit in advance of the times.
Oldtimers Appeared Immense
Hotel structures have increased il
size. Many of the oldtimers occupied
entire blocks on Broadway, looking
much larger than the present day
buildings, but perhaps having only 25e
or 900 rooms, the largest having only
400. One or two Of the old house:

the grouping Of the houses is SO ar

eliminated. and instead there is single
broad gravel road serving as the only
means of ingress and egress to theae
houses. This was done not only to se-
cure quaint, picturesque affect, but
because sidewalks are really not needed
here, the local residents having motor
