You can get an idea of the width of this strip from the fact that it has only two streets, the Calle, for whole- sale businesé, and the Calle Esmeral- da, for retail business. "Back of these the land rises in tiers, to which you go up on eleva: tors or incline railways, such as you have on the mountain in Montreal, The residences are on these upper tiers. | The city contains a lot of wealth.
