GO SEW IS CH, Observer. New York's Greatness. New York Commercial: New York city and the cities of northern New Jersey, #hlch are a part of the real metropolis, are so cut up by water ways that they form a gigantic Ven ice. Counting all the shore lines within this vast metropolitan district we have a stretch of waterfront ac tually or potentially availab'f for ship ping purposes of more than seven hundred miles. Each important sec tion is connected with every other by water and this great convenience of access makes the district a natural manufacturing center, the importance of which is not fully appreciated. "These waterways are the district's greatest asset and they will be much more valuable when the waterfronts are properly developed. Since the Quensborough bridge was built a great manufacturing center has sprung up around its Long Island end which is well served by land and water transportation. The finest rail road bridge and viaduct in the world spans Hell Gate and will soon be in full operation, giving this section di rect communication by rail with all parts of the outside world. It 1b al! nevT and wonderful. Nine-tenths of the people who live in Greater New York have never seen the magnifi cent railroad and rapid transit via ducts and other developments, now approaching completion which will add vastly to the value and Import ance of a section that wan little more than waste land five years ago.
