"The, 'Chimney' Bdilding, an the structure ' at the southeast corner o Broadway arid Wall ' Street is, often called, has been leased to a syndicate for twenty-one years at a rental said to be in excess of., $8,000,000. The building; which for itasize probably has the smallest , . base in New York, fronts 29.10 feet in Broadway and 39.19 feet in Wall Street." On the other sjde of Broadway, a few squares north, at the corner of Barclay,, stands the Woolworth Building, sixty stories high, on a small block of ground, 151 feet by 195 feet, in which are 3500 rooms (little houses), occupied by 10,605 tenants and employes. Deeply rooted 'in the earth, each floor constructed skillfully to become foundations for the multiplication of stories upon stories up into the .higher, healthfuler air, a town of 10,605 inhabitants living ,in the sweeter, clearer air above the city streets, helping to make the fame and name of New York City an honor the world around! , .. . & As it takes only a little plot of ground for such great and valuable buildings to grow upon, it is not to be wondered that small foundations, like two small boys, one a telegraph 'messenger and the other a mechanic, can sometimes grow into great and valuable lives, such as those of Andrew Carnegie and Thomas A. Edison. Small, indeed, were the means and spaces when ' and where this honorable business enterprise began, and sometimes the climbing up was painful, but through all the years we have steadily mounted and are still keeping on the course upward and upward and bettering our facilities and ' methods to be of greater service to our patrons in two great cities.
