Cohen, Judge Otto A. Rosalsky, Isreal Unterburg, Samuel Lamport, the Rev. M. M. Kaplan and other prominent citi¬ zens in New York City are interested. The buiWing will occupy the site meas¬ uring 77.xl00.8 feet, acauired in April, 1916, from various owners, and will rep- torium, clubrooms for adults and social rooms for junior members. The club- rooms have been arranged both as to layout and finish in order to provide tlie same congenial atmosphere that is lo be found in the best clubs in the city. A commodious gymnasium has been provided for, with special provisions for hand-ball and squash courts. A swim¬ ming pool will be built on the si.xth floor, and arrangement has also been made for the installation of Turkish bath conven¬ iences. A feature in the interior treatment will Louis Allen Abramson, JEWISH CE.N'TRE IN WEST SOTH STREET. Architect. resent an outlay of appro.ximately $350,- 000. exclusive of the cost of the land. The buildinEf. which has been designed by Louis .-Mien .Abramson, architect, 220 Fifth avenue, in the Italian Renaissance, style, will measure 66x109 feet, and will be eight stories in height. The exterior construction will be of stone. In it will be incorporated the most modern ideas in Iniilding construction of this type, in an effort to make it especially prominent in tlie field with which it will be identified. The structure has been designed to serve the immediate neighborhood with reference to its spiritual, educational, social and physical development, the ideas of the founders being to institu¬ tionalize the activities of the residents of the section and to place them all under proper direction and leadership. The building will contain a large syna¬ gogue; also a minor synagogue, an audi- be a grand staircase leading from the main floor to the large synagogue on the second story. The interior, generally, will be equipped and appointed along both attractive and practical lines. In its entirety, the building is expected to represent a fine addition to the com¬ munity buildings which have been erected in so many parts of the city within recent years. It is probable that the project will go ahead within a short time since the wreckin.g contract was awarded to the Jacob Volk House Wrecking Company, 103 Park avenue. General plans for the Iniildin.g have been completed, although a number of the lesser details have yet to be worked out. The scope of work of the institution will be so varied and its activities cover so wide a range that certain parts of the building require special treatment. RECORD AND GVIDE QUOTATIONS ARE ACCEPTED AS OFFICIAL BY BUILDING BIATERIAL EXCHANGES..
