The lower floors of the buildings are twenty-
eight feet deeper than are the floors above the
sixth. This space of twenty-eight feet in width,
running for two hundred feet along the Depew
Place front of the top of each of the sixth floors
of the twin structures, will become a roof garden
and open air restaurant for use during the
warmer months. Within, and immediately ad-
joining the roof garden, will be rooms suitably
furnished and equipped to serve as a well ap-
pointed club, while the restaurant will be a
properly managed adjunct.
It is intended to
install more public restaurants and other in-
stitutions of convenience on the basement or
street floor of each of the structures.
The Depew Place windows of the upper floors of
the two buildings to be occupied by the Merchants
and Manufacturers' Exchange will overlook Park
avenue, which is to be here a thoroughfare one
hundred and forty feet wide, leading to the
Forty-fifth street carriage entrance to the Grand
Central station.
