A -Nan con wit apurtment hotel for artists to contain about HO suites and th the household srranse- mrnti so scientlfloslly planned that meals will be cooked without extra chsrxe to the tenants In a community kitchen and sent direct to the rooms in service elevstors, presents certain features of Interest even In this axe of the ultra -equipped apartment.

The community kltchon is only one of the conveniences provided for the comfort of living in this new apartment, which la likely to hold a distinctive pUce among such structures In New Tork. The buildlnx will be known as the Hotel 1-a Artistes It will be erected on a plot fronting ISO feet on the north aide of Hlxty-seventh Htr-et. just off Central Park West, adjoining the northwest corner. The property i was purchased several weeks sgo from the Fullerton Weaver Company. By May 1 excavation will begin ani (n a little over a year the artists who hsvs projected the structure and a fsw other favored Individuals, who will be permitted to lease about per cent, of the apartments, will find the building ready for occupancy.

Officially." said Penrhyn Staa-laws. the artist, who Is President of the companr. the Hotel des Artistes will be nine stories high, but as each floor has a messsnine floor, the height will be equivalent to that of a seventeen-story building. It will be not only the Isrgest snd most ambitious project of Its kind In this city, the centre of the great apartment house development, but I feel also safe In saying that it will be the finest building planned by artists for the occupancy of artists Id the world." About 40 to 43 per cent, of the suites will be lessed to tenants outside ths building syndlcata In flnanclul value, as Mr. Stxnlaw said, this represents about $500,000 of rentable pare.

Ths plsns were only flnlahed a few day ago and yet nearly of this anount has been takrn. This led to the suggestion that the artistic colony Is very far from being In a bankrupt condition, in this country at any rate. Mr. was not, however. Inclined to to take such a rosy hue ot artists in general ss Ibis might Indicate, but he showed that he wss firm.
