Fifth Avenue Corner in Trade.
William B. May & Co. sold the large
vacant plot at the south corner of Fifth
avenue and 96th street, fronting 100.8
feet on Fifth avenue, and 150 feet in
96th street, in the Carnegie Hill section,
for Sumner Gerard, to Oliver Gould
Jennings, a lawyer. The property was
acquired by Mr. Gerard several years
ago from the Marsh Estate, and was
valued at $700,000. In the same block
are the residences of Ogden Codman, F.
deR. Wissman and Lucy Drexel Dahl-
gren. In part payment Mr. Jennings
gave his former residence at 7 East 72d
street, a four-story English basement
house, held at $350,000. Mr. Jennings
placed this property on the market after
he had completed his new home at 882
Fifth avenue, just south of the residence
of C. Ledyard Blair, and the Henry Clay
Frick mansion. Mr. Jennings' latest
purchase is in the heart of a district
where during the past few years many
fine residences have been erected. The
block to the north, between 96th and
97th streets, is one which the late Mrs.
Flagler-Bingham purchased two years
ago with the view of erecting a fine res¬
idence, and this is abutted by the new
home in 96th street of Mrs. Amory
S. Carhart and Ernesto Fabbri.
Obtain Building Site Option.
The Buek Construction Company is
reported to have taken an option on the
two buildings at 51 and 53 East 60th
street, forming a building site, 40x100
feet. If the option is exercised a build¬
ing will be erected designed for the
exclusive occupancy of physicians and
surgeons. Plans for this :trijcture are
now being prepared by Herbert M. Baer,
architect. It is understood that a com¬
pany of leading physicians and demists
is being formed to take over the build¬
ing upon completion. Exact details re¬
garding the transaction were not avail¬
able yesterday. The property has been
held at $110,000.
