y Inc'ex to flecord and Guide Vol. Llll. For New York Conveyances, Projected Buildings and Advertisers. NOS. 1347 TO 1372. JANUARY--JUNE, INCLUSIVE. 1894. The following .semi-annual hidex of the Convevances and Projected Buildings in New York City, as published in I'liK Rkcoki) and GllDE during the Hrst half of 1894, Avill be found of great value to those of our suli- scribers who have preserved all the issues of this paper during that period. Care has lieeii taken to keep the Index up to tli(^ same standard which has characterized it in the jiast. The pages are given on which all the transfers of realty published in Volume Llll. (■an be found, and the streets and avenues are so subdivided that few refeiences are re- (|iiiied. For iustance, tr.ansfers of property on the Bowery appear in eleven Lssues during (he six months. Bowery in the Index is subdi¬ vided into seven parts, so that the least jiossi- l)le trouble need be incurred, jirftvided it is known Ix'tween what streets t'.ie iirojierty is located. In this volume we havi' confinucd to arrange the tran.sfers in such a manner that almost every street att'ected (Indow the llarlen.) can be seen at a glance liy furning to the pages which the Index calls for. Take for in.stance page 12 and ttnd thereon: Central Park West ) begins Central Park 9li(l St • West, w s. extends 93d St ) from 92d st to 93d st. 201.5x175, vaciint. The .above applies when a jiiiaa' of pro]iert.y is on the corner of any .street or avenue below the Harlem River and runs in depth iijion liofh streets more than 100 feet, or when a plot has buildings fronting on both streets, and also when the property begins on one street and runs to another. Although many of our sub¬ scribers have used the Index for years, sfune of them do not fully understand the coin, pleteness of the work. We are fre(|ueiitly fold of errors that our readers thhik they have dis¬ covered, which, upon investigation, prove to he errors of the searcher—not of the Index. For instance, iu the current number apuears the following: 135th and 136th sts (23d and 21th Wards), e of Willow .av, 15, the latter being the page on which a tran.sfer on said streets may be found. Now, turning to pagc^ 1,5, the average searcher would fail to find the item referred to, liecause it does not appear in the alphabetical order of streets. A close search shows the item under the head of Willow av. e s, extends from 135th st to 136th st, 200x125. The Index is, therefore, in .some cases con- denined for a .supposed error which is really the strongest evidence of the thoroughness with which it has been compiled. Where such an omission should occasionally seem apparent to the sub.scribcr. he should .search the whole jiage, and he will then find the item which is ret'irred to. The Projected Buildings are in¬ dexed in a similar manner, so that it can readily be a.scertained on what .streets ini. provemeuts have been made. Those wishing to keep a Hie for permanent reference slionld see that all the numbers are complete and have them bound. Cost of binding, .'j!2.()0 per volume. A suitable temporary binder, hold¬ ing one volume, can be obt.arned at the ollice of TiiK RKcoKn AND Guide, 14 and 16 Visey street; price, one dollar. Annexed will be found a table showing the bouiidaiy lines, also the number of blocks con¬ tained in each of the thirteen Sections, and under which all property is now iiidexes of New York City, according to law, whi(di went into effect Jan. 1, 1891. The tax maps are now being arranged in a corre- .sponding inanuer. Section ].—South of Grand and Watts sts, between P^ast and North Rivers.

NoTK.—The figures in parenthesis—for in¬ stance, p.age (849) under the lu'ad of Barclay street—denote that the transaction on the page given is Lea.sehold. an assignment of lease or a lease running for a long term of jears. This explan.ation is made so thjit subscribers .searching for tr.ansfers in fee can at once distingui.sh between the former and the latter without refeiTJiig to the pages mentioned. NEW YORK CITY.
