In addition to this list, 34 barns were put up, 65 houses

and stores enlarged and added to, and some 50 cellars dug and frames erected upon them. The latter are in rapid process of completion, and are about all finished. The total number of buildings of all classes reported October 1, 1867, was 5,963. The number entered on the list of last October was classified as follows: Dwelling houses, 5,353; stores, 636; mannfactories, 251; total, 6,240, showing an increase, as already stated, of 277 in favor of 1868. It is estimated that, adding the buildings, which, since the 1st of October, have been completed and projected, the list will crowd 500 pretty hard. Among the
more noticeable buildings completed during the year, the following deserve special mention : New church (German Baptist), corner of Broad and George streets; the West church (Congregational), corner of Howard avenue and Columbus street; new school-house,
on Howard avenue; Germania Hall, Cherry street ; Episcopalian widows' home, two dwellings and a chapel in George street, erect- ed by Joseph E. Sheffield, Esq .; Connecticut savings bank, Church street ; the gas company's building, St. John street ; Sargent & Co.'s new building in Water street; new Catholic church, Fair Haven ; the Yale national bank building, corner of State and Chapel streets.
The average increase in the value of real estate in the city dur- ing the year was about 25 per cent. In some sections of the city the increase was as high as 50 per cent.
In addition to the property that is subject to taxation, there is property belonging to the colored residents of the city which is valued at $150,000. This property, by a law passed 1844, is un- taxable .- Palladium.
