Text Appearing Before Image:
jOf f 7 Cornhill, reaching back in each instance to Brattle Street, hi the above engraving is seen the Washing- ton-Street and Cornhill Front. It is 125 feet in lengthon the two streets, and six stories in height, and, though not an archi-tectural model, yet presents an appearance at once solid, substantial,and majestic. No. 3 Cornhill is the main entrance, leading directlyto the Counting Room. We also give a view of the Brattle-Street Front. Here may beseen the entrance for the reception and delivery of merchandise,such as books, paper, ink, and other printing material. The streetin front is wide, and not pressed with travel, so that our ingressand egress are not obstructed by the many difficulties that prevail inmore crowded thoroughfares. This entrance connects directly with theElevator, shown in the vignette, and thus with all parts of the building. In the vignette we present a sectional view of the building and itsvarious departments, which we will enter and examine more closely.
