This avenue starts from Washington square, gradually approaches Broadway, passing near Union square, crossing Broadway at Madison square, and ascending the slopes of Murray hill to Fortieth street. It has for this distance, for years past, been occupied as the choicest site for costly residences. Con- tinuing northerly from Murray hill, it descends by a gentle grade, and at half a mile's distance, it reaches a summit of equal elevation at Fiftieth street. Around this locality are already placed... the Roman Catholic Cathedral, the foundations and base courses of which were five years ago erected, and their Orphan Asylum. Here is the site of 32 THE FIFTH AVENUE TENDENCY. the Dutch Reformed church, whose chapel is ah'eady built ; and here St. Thomas and St. Bartholomew's churches have selected their loca- tions. At this point, on the westerly side of the avenue, are the four blocks of land given by the city to Columbia College, now of great value, and recently leased so as to produce a large annual revenue for the purposes of the college.
