INDEX TO THE NEW YORK CONVEYANCES AND PROJECTED BUILDINGS PUBLISHED IN THE RECORD AND GUIDE. Vol. LI. JANUARY^—JUNE, INCLUSIVE, 1893. The following semi-annual Index of the Cou- veyances and Projected Buildings in New York City, as published in The Record AND Guide during the first half of 1893,will toe found of great value to those of our subscribers who have pre¬ served all the issues of this paper during that period. Care has been taken to keep the Index up to the same standard which has charactei'ized it in the past. The pages are given on which all the transfers of realty pub¬ lished in Volume LI. can be found, and the streets and avenues are so subdivided that few references are requh'ed. For instance, transfers of property on the Bowery appear in seventeen issues during the six months. Bowery in the Index is subdivided into ten parts, so that the least possible trouble need be incurred, provided it is known between what streets the property is lo¬ cated. In this volume we have continued to ar_ range the transfers iu such a manner that every street affected (below the Harlem) can be seen at a glance by tui-ning to the pages which the Index calls for. Take for instance page 11 and find thereon: Broadway, Ko. 709 I begins Broadway, w a, 49.9 Mercer st. No. 374 j s Wa'ihington pi, 24,2x 300 to Mercer st, i24.2x200, three-story brk store on Broadway and two-story brk store on Mercer at. The above applies when a piece of property is on the corner of any street or avenue and i-uus in depth upon both streets more than 100 feet, or when a plot has buildings fronting on both streets, and also when the property begius on one street and runs to another. Although many of our subscribers have used the Index for years, some of them do not fully undei'stand the com¬ pleteness of the work. We are frequently told of errors that our readers think they have dis¬ covered, which, upon investigation, prove to be en'ors of the searcher—not of the Index. For in¬ stance, in the current number appears the follow- mg: Tiffany st (33d and 34th Wards), 14,117, 370, 386, the latter being the pages on which transfers on said street may be found. Now, turning to page J4, the average searcher would fail to find the item referred to, because it does not appear in the alphabetical order of streets. A close search shows the item under the head of Barretto st, w s, 887,3 n Spafford st, runs wert 389,9 to Tiffany st, x north 109 ti x east 402.6 to Barretto st, x south 57,10, The Index is, therefore, in some ca.ses con¬ demned for a supposed error which is really the strongest evidence of the thoroughness with which it has been compiled. Where such an omis¬ sion should occasionally seem apparent to the sub¬ scriber, he should search the whole page, and he will then find the item which is referred to. The Projected Buildings are indexed in a similar mau- ner, so that it can readily be ascertained on what streets improvements have been made. Those wishing to keep a file for permanent reference should see that all the numbers are complete and have them bound. A suitable binder can be ob¬ tained at the office of The Record and Guide 14 and 16 Vesey street; price, one dollar. Annexed will be found a table showing the boundary lines, also the number of blocks con¬ tained in each of the thirteen Sections, and under which all property is now indexed in the Register's office by locahty on new land maps of New York City, according to law, which went into effect Jan. 1, 1891: Section ].—South of Grand and Watts stB, between East and North Rivers.

CONVEYANCES. Note.—The figures in extra black type—for instance, pages 62T, 7.55, 956, 990, under the head of 14th st, from 3d av to Broadway, de¬ note that the transaction on the pages given is Leasehold, or a lease running for a long term of years. This explanation is made so that subscrib¬ ers searching for transfers in fee can at once dis¬ tinguish between the former and the latter with¬ out referring to the pages mentioned. NEW TOKK CITY.
