AN OLD BUSINESS CORNER RECONSTRLCTED.
Anyone at all acquainted with the west side must be
astonished with the rapid change which has come over
that much-frequented southeast corner of the Eighth
Avenue and Twenty-third Street during the past year.
It was only last May when demolition soon leveled the
corner building to the ground, on which now stand as
' fine offices as can be found In the city. Mr. Edwin P.
Smith, who made au advantageous purchase of that cor¬
ner and several adjoining buildings a few years since,
deserves great credit for the taste aud enterprise with
which he has improved that part of Twenty-third Street.
One of these buildings adjoining the corner has been
erected for the especial use of the Messrs. Denham &
Co., whose card always stands prominently in the col¬
umns of the Real Estate Record. This firm has been
established since 1845, and we hazard nothing in saying
that it will be ditlicult to find uptown a firm which has
had such a varied experience in the managemeut of es¬
tates as this firm of Denham & Co. Their business,
which has grown to large proportions, has been
conducted, since the death of Mr. Denham, under
the same old name, Messrs. Mercer, Jaync, and
Walley having, by their industry and integrity,
made the name of Denham & Co. popular, not only
among the landlords, but also among the tenants of the
west side. We congratulate them heartily upon their
occupancy of the new building, wither they moved on
the first business day of the new year,'and where their
offices, fitted up in neat and tasteful style, are now per¬
manently located. The front room, being the general
office for the use.of the clerks, is neatly furnished with all
the conveniences belonging to a well-appointed real es¬
tate and insurance offlce,and the adjoining rooms, fitted
up in quite elegant style and handsomely carpeted, with
closets attached, are the private offices for the members
of the firm. The upper part of the building has beeu
constructed for the use of private families, who desire
to live comfortably without being compelled to pay
enormously for it. They are, in fact, "flats" in the
very best adaptation of that term, aud the view one has
from the uppei: apartments, both along the avenue as
well as down Twenty-third Street, is. perhaps, the rea¬
son why the greater part of the building has already
been rented to several tenants, who enjoy the privelege
of a separate entrance without disturbing the offices be¬
low. Altogether, that Eighth Avenue corner will prove
a more profitable real estate investment than the unfort¬
unate corner on the opposite side of the avenue, whence
the magnates of Erie have just fled in dire confusion, a»
if haunted by the ghost of Fisk and the dreadful night¬
mares of the late Mr. Pike, who dreamt that in that pile
of marble " there was millions in it."
