LC PHILADELPHIA: HUBBARD BROTHERS, PUBLISHERS, No. 723 CHESTNUT STREET. 1886. E168 .G553 Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1883, by WILLARD GLAZIER, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington, D. C. 194604 12 To her WHO IS NEAREST AND DEAREST; WHOSE HEART HAS ENCOURAGED; WHOSE HAND HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE ILLUSTRATION AND EMBELLISHMENT OF ALL MY LITERARY WORK, This Volume IS LOVINGLY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR. PREFACE. It has occurred to the author very often that a volume presenting the peculiar features, favorite resorts and distinguishing characteristics, of the leading cities of America, would Peculiarities of American cities. http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.05993 Library of Congress prove of interest to thousands who could, at best, see them only in imagination, and to others, who, having visited them, would like to compare notes with one who has made their PECULIARITIES a study for many years. A residence in more than a hundred cities, including nearly all that are introduced in this work, leads me to feel that I shall succeed in my purpose of giving to the public a book, without the necessity of marching in slow and solemn procession before my readers a monumental array of time-honored statistics; on the contrary, it will be my aim, in the following pages, to talk of cities as I have seen and found them in my walks, from day to day, with but slight reference to their origin and past history.

Below are the names of the most recent donors. We offer our sincere thanks to all of them plus everyone who has made a donation to this important historical society and community project. Your support has allowed us to take the first big step in our Phase 1 effort to save the building. With an environmentally clean building, we are now ready to take the next major step in saving the building—replacing the failed roof structure. When this step is complete, we will have completed our work to simply save the building from crumbling into itself. We couldn’t have reached this point without the help of all of our donors. The New Roof is Coming Soon!: Right now, our general contractor, Bill Duggan, is making plans to get the staging, a crane, dumpsters and other materials needed to tear off the old roof and install our new truss system roof. We will also straighten and strengthen the long walls of the building. We hope that in our next newsletter, we’ll have another supplement showing the removal of the old roof and installation of the new roof. While it’s unfortunate that the roof needs to be replaced, conversations with preservationists tell us that roof structures are the most common replacement item in old buildings.
