=THE BROADWAY CENTRAL HOTEL=, New York, which has undergone a thorough
rebuilding, is now open to the public.
This is altogether the largest hotel property in New York, and, with the
present improvements, will have a valuation of nearly two millions of
dollars and accommodate over one thousand persons.
Mr. Haynes, the new lessee, is making it a great popular house for

store, theater and attraction of the city, and transfer with all
cross-town lines, reaching every station, dock and ferry in town.
