Merwin, a fine two story house. Mr. A. J. Ramsdell, on the corner of Bradley and Orange streets, has built a fine house, two story, stucco and Frenchi roof. Mr. Newgeon, for Messrs. Armstrong, has a block of four brick houses ; and Mr. Holt has two fine wooden houses adjoining the last. The largest, and perhaps the finest, dwelling house in the city, belonging to Mr. Davies, on Prospect street, was finished last year ; also a fine dwelling of Mrs. Skinner's on the same street. Mr. Alden, on Wall street, has two very desirable new brick houses. Mr. Flagg has two on Bradley street. Mr. Larkins has a fine brick block of six four story houses on Whalley avenue, and Messrs. Galpiu, Lincoln, Sperry, Russell, and others, on Whalley avenue, have built fine houses the past year. Messrs. Hine & Baldwin, on Dwight street, have a block of four briek houses unfinished. Charles Winship, on York Square Place, has built two fine blocks, one of five houses, and one of four, all of them three stories high. On York street, near Chapel, Mr. Dickerman has finished a fine block of five or six houses. Dr. Rodman and others are building on Chapel street, between High and York, three fine brick houses, parti-colored stone front; and Mr. Newgeon is building on the corner of Hubbard and Sylvan avenue & block of three fine brick houses.
The most princely of all the buildings in the city, as it possesses the sacred interest of noble charity, is the Home for the Aged Women of Trinity Parish, erected at the sole cost of Joseph E. Sheffield, Esq. The gift embraces the Home, Trinity Chapel, and Parish School. The Home is complete in its appointments, and has every convenience for the care and comfort of its inmates. First of all, the poor and in- firm women of the parish are received within its fold, and afterwards others, under proper restrictions and conditions. Its accommodations are for twenty-five persons. The arrangements of the Chapel are marked by extreme simplicity, and can accommodate about three hundred persons. A congregation will be gathered by a chaplain, who will do missionary work in the neighborhood. It is expected services will be held regularly. The Parish School has been in ex- istence many years. The school-room is large, light and well ven- tilated. The basement room is designed for classes. There are apartments in the building for teachers and for the chaplain of the institution. The buildings were erected at a cost of over $100,000. The property, with the lot, is valued at $120,000.
In the Second Ward, we think there have been the most buildings in number put up-homes of working men. Some ten houses on Grape Vine Point have also been put up. Still, there is more call for and need of houses of this character. Houses that will rent from $150 to $250 are needed very much.
The building formerly occupied by the Yale National Bank, on State street, is being remodeled, and will be converted into stores.

BENHAM'S NEW HAVEN DIRECTORY.
The old stone house, at the corner of George and Meadow streets, which has for years been looked upon by our young population as an " haunted house," is being made into stores by Charles Katsch.
Factories are gathering into the Fifth Ward. The best houses have gone up in Orange street and Whalley Avenue. Whalley Avenue is . rapidly coming to be, what it must eventually be, from its width and length-the noblest avenue leading out of the city ; while Chapel street on the one hand, and Dixwell Avenue on the other, must follow close after it.
There has been considerable activity in the sale of building lots on Grape Vine Point, and on Howard Avenue, the past year. Messrs. Stone on State street, and Blatchley on the left of Grand street, beyond Barnsville Bridge, have laid out extensive grounds for build- ing purposes, on the easterly side of the town ; while Messrs. Sheldon, Cowles and Bishop, have laid out the Gregory Place of thirty-two acres in fine single lots, suitable for a good class of houses. Many new streets in the western part of the town have been opened, extended and widened. The town presents every appearance of a fine growth.
As has been before stated, we have been obliged to condense the account of the prosperity of cur city during the past year, but suffi- cient has been given to show how grandly the city is growing.
In conclusion, it is our pleasure to tender our thanks to the merchants and others of New Haven, for the patronage and good will they have so kindly extended to us by their favors, which will be found elsewhere, and which favors we have endeavored to make as attractive and beautiful as possible, in the short space of time alloted for the publication of a work of this kind. We trust they will be abundantly rewarded by an increased patronage of the good people of our city.
We commend our volume, with all its imperfections-for it would be egotism in any of us to claim perfectness-to the attention and patronage of the public. J. H. B. JULY 1, 1869.
