IMPROVEMENTS IN THE CITY.-An application has
been made to the corporation for permission to open
William street through to the head of Chambers
street, and also to widen it. SO as to make it a COM
modlous and beautiful thoroughfare This would.
indeed, be most desirable improvement Broad
way, below Chambers street, is so crowded by the
immense and constant flow of passengers and vehi-
cles OF all descriptions, that it is exceedingly desr-
able to increase the dimensions and conveniences
OF the adjacent thoroughfares parallel to it, SO as to
extend the facilities TOR the prosecution of all sorts
Of business in this densely crowded and busting
portion of the city


A splendid block Of buildings has been recently
erected in William street, by a number of Pearl
street jobbers, who intend establishing themselves
in that new locality, Several very fine new build
lngs have been erected In the same neghborhood.
On the corner of Nassau and John streets, a yery
spacious and elegant block of warehouses and
stores has been lately erected. A new bank has
been opened on the corner of William and Fulton
streets and Beach intends opening another in the
latter street, in the building Of which he now occu-
pies portion. We will soon have three or four
banks IN that streets. II s, indeed fast becoming
one of the greatest business streets in the city, and
when the Erie Railroad is completed, and Its ferry
established at the North River end of the street, i
Will be the great avenue leading to Long Island
Boston, New Jersey, and all the route traversed b,
the Erie Railroad. In a very short time Fulton
street will be one of the greatest and handsomest
business streets in the United States
