tions of an agreement to put the plan
into operation viii take additional time.
In view or the vast importance Of this
project and the great amount Of thought
and attention gwen to II by the Borough
Presidents office and by the members
OF the executive staff It is believed that
a brief summary OF the Borough Presi-
dents report will be both interesting
and opp9rtune At this time.
THE plan Is TO acquire an easement
OF sufficient width to carry the traffic
around the easterly side or the Grand
Central Station, through what Is gen.
orally known as Depew place. IL is
proposed to raise the roadway to n
level above the present level of Depew
place. so that there will be no inter-
ference with It's present use and so that
the east and west bound and the north
and sound bound traffic at Forty-fifth
street may be separated 1t is then pro-
posed to carry this roadway westerly.
on the north side of Forty-hfth street. TO
Park avenue and northerly on Park
avenue 10 Forty-sixth street. to meet
the existing grade. This will necessi-
tate the removal OF the lower story ct
the bridge between the Grand Central
station and the Office building on the
easterly side OF Depew place"
The widening OF Madison avenue Is
another object which Is receiving the
attention OF the association. or this
the report speaks as follows:
In connection with the widening of
Madison avenue, too much cannot be
said OF the value and Importance OF
widening this avenue as an aid in maxi
ing Il one OF the finest business thor
oughfares in tho city OF New York.
Following several years OF uninter-
rupted efforts on tho part OF the assoc
citation through our Madison avenue
committee. the contract for the actual
widening was let by tho city and the
contractor given seventy-hve days in
which 10 finish the Job. Owing 70 the
care exercised by the city authorities
I'm the selection OF the contractor, the
work was finished in less than ffty
days. and was performed with the least
possible interference TO business. At
no time during the work was the traffic
on Madison avenue shut or. Many of
our business people will testify 10 tile
fact that this Improvement was expe-
dited and completed as quickly as pos
sible.
AT no time during the work did the
executive Offices fail to have a represcn-
tative make a daily inspection 70 sec
that tho needs and wishes OF any OF the
business men along the avenue and
streets adjacent thereto were attended
to. The Borough Presidents Office
should also be commended for the eff-
Client handling OF this work II Ia our
belief that this Improvement pavcs the
way FOR continued and rapid growth in
the value of Madison avenue and that
Il Is one OK the accomplishments Of the
association which merits recognition
from those who viii be vitally ar
fected."

his satisfied clients on both sides and
nothing else. I believe that these cold
water tenements and the ones generally
known as the 1914 room houses, four
families of three and four rooms, that
rent from SIS to $40 per month. can
hardly ever be replaced for those rentals,
az they now exist, on account OF labor
and material. Even If they do come down
they can never be built for the old fig
ures. This class of tenement used to
cost to build in the old times from
SIS. 900 to 100000. To replace the same
thing now would cost from $4,000 to
$50. 900. The rentals would have to be
increased accordingly-thatw would mean
nearly double the present rentals. This
is another reason why this class Of
houses is bound to come in the active
market.
BY experience my opiaion is that this
class of property has been dormant from
1907. l do not mean to say that all
classes of real estate have been the same.
In fact, some real estate has been very
active. such as private houses. business
property. apartment houses. office build
ihgs &c, but here you have s. different
kind Of purchaser. This class of pur-
chasers is entirely different. They are
more intelligent. they can see things
better, further and quicker. You can't
hand these men a gold brick SO easily.
They very rarely pick one up. This
Class of buyer doesn't want tenemeats.
His time Is too valuable to bother with a
tenement that pays SIS TO $50 per month.
Although 75 out of 100 OF them might
have made their start with that kind of
property OF not themselves, their fathers
d.d). they now want tenants that pay
by checks in large amounts, that send
them to their office. where they don't
have to bother with repairs. &c. IL we
had this type of purchasers for the
tenement houses we could rest assured
that this property would not have Jain
dormant for such long time.

At no time since its inception has the
Fifth Avenue Association made such a
record Of undertakings as 1t did during
1921. The list OF Its accomplishments
along many lines OF endeavor and in
cidentally in the field of real estate mat
tiers, as It appears in the annual report
OF the association Just out. tells plainly
the story OF the increasing sphere Of
activity and usefulness of this organ
ization not only to the merchants and
property owners along Fifth avenue but
to those whose interests are vested in
the side streets known as the Fifth
avenue zone
In his report to the association Robert
Grier Cooke. president, says the most
noteworthy feature of the development
and growth OF the organization during
the last year has been the general recog-
milton Of the power and influence OF the
association.
"This recognition" says Mr.. Cooke,
rs not local, nor even national, although
frequent expression of it is found In the
press throughout the United States. but
from Canada and from far away Eng
land comes the same acknowledgment.
A recent issue Of the London Daily Er-
press calls especial attention TO the ac-
complishments OF our organization and
suggests that England could well take a
leaf out Of the American book along this
line"
Among the accomplishments which the
association has reported which affect real
estate interests arc the following taken
from the report Of Thomas W. Hughes.

the zone To favor the change in tho

In the matter OF the widening OF West
