Whiskeman, of the Bureau of Bulldings to-day, to an Evening World reporter, Mr. Whiskeman has been assigned by Superintendent Edward 8. Murphy to pass upon the plans filed with the Department by Daniel H. } Burnham, architect, of Chicago, Ill. Mr. Burnham {5 represented before the Bureau of Bulldings by E. R. Graham, an associate architect, who has taken quartera at the Holland i\ House to awalt the approval of the plans by the New York City authorities, “The mere examination of the plans for this mammoth building 1s a good two months’ work,” continued Mr. Whiskeman, “This whopper of a ] yacraper, so far as my preliminary examination goes, seems to be per: | fectly feasible, and {t will undoubtedly be erected.” $ FORTY ACRES OF FLOOR SPACE. | Mr, Whiskeman was asked to oujlne, In round numbers, some of the majes-| tle dimensions of the proposed building, with adequate comparisons, “Well, the New Equitable Building will have @ floor area of about 1,656,¥0) } @quare feet, or forty acres,” was the reply. “This meang that should tne Dullding be flattened out to a height of one floor it would oover the lower end | of Manhattan Island below Wall street, east of Broadway. “The plans further provide for 5,200 windows and 4,000 radiators, or enough glass to window the Philadelphia subur> of Frankford, Pa, and enough heat to Keep the entire business section of Brooklyn comfortable through @ Canedian winter, “Of course, one can only e: needed to carry tne % for brick and terra cotta to the sixty-second story, "I would estimate that the outside wall, two and @ half reet thick, wilt re- quire about 1,500,000,00 brick, This Is enough brick to build a wall ten feet! high across the Continent separating the United States from Canada. | “The height of M8 feet, as proposed, 1s the height of the Singer Building Placed on top of the Standard Of!
