| TEXT | Mr. Joseph P. Quiri enjoys the distinction of being the oldest plumber in New York, and his fine establishment is likewise the representative one in the metropolis, Mr. Quin doing the largest business in New York in the line of public and private buildings. The present concern was founded away back in 1845. Mr Quin became the proprietor upon the decease of Mr. Stephen Philbin. a very prominent man. Preliminary to speaking of the fine character and great magnitude of Mr. Quin's trade, we desire to remark that he is the most experienced and skilful practical plumber in New York to-day, and executes only the very finest and most reliable class of work. He has executed the plumbing work in the greater number of the large buildings in New York. Limits of space prevent our giving more than a few of the buildings for which he did the work. Among them are the Gilsey House; the magnificent ten-story building of the London and Liverpool and Globe Insurance Company; the Park Avenue Hotel; the Boreel Building, on lower Broadway ; the beautiful edifice of the New York Life Insurance Company; the Windsor Hotel, on Fifth Avenue, the best equipped in the city; the Murray Hill Hotel, an immense structure near Forty-second Street depot; and hundreds of other equally important buildings; and thousands of our finest private houses, but does not do tenement work. In a word, Mr. Quin works for the best families and most enterprising property owners in New York, and is the proprietor to-day of the largest and finest business of the kind in the United States. Mr. Quin occupies commodious and central premises corner of Fourth Avenue and Twentieth Street, and employs a large staff of the most skilful and reliable journeymen plumbers in the city - often as many as two hundred at a time. Nothing but the best and most approved materials are used by him, and plumbing put in by him is always solid, lasting. and thoroughly satisfactory. Mr. Quin is one of our best known and most highly esteemed citizens, and is an active member of that famous body of military veterans, the Eighth Regiment. His energy and enterprise in business need not be recounted here, since his merits are fully recognized in the community, and New York may well be congratulated on the possession of such a successful and public-spirited business man as Mr. Quin has proved himself to be. His two sous, both practical and experienced young men, are associated with him in business. |
