BROADWAY.—The Stewart Building sale can without doubt be called one of the greatest cash investments of the year. The holding price was $4,500,000, and the sellers received about that figure for the parcel. The Stewart Building, once used for a wholesale dr>- goods house by A. T. Stewart, was later turned into an oiflce building, which was not very successful. Felix Isman, the buyer, has recently organized a real estate syndicate with strong financial backing, for which he is undoubtedly buy¬ ing in a bold, determined way. Some attention has been at¬ tracted on account of the liberal flgures paid for the property. Much speculation as to the result of the venture has been heard. 5TH av.—George Nicholas sold 557 5th av, a 6-sty business building, 25x100, to an out-of-town client of Winston H.
