  By 1906, George Foster PEABODY had amassed a fortune and retired from 
business – but not from an active life.
  He and his brothers, ROYAL CANFIELD and CHARLES JONES PEABODY, put up almost 
$ 86,000 to build the YMCA building that continues in active use at the corner 
of Columbus’ 11th street and second avenue. It is reputed to be the only marble 
YMCA in existence.
