TALUE OF CIVIC BEAUTY.
Mr.. Shepard Condemns Its Lack in
Brooklyn Bridge approaches.

In an address at the Peoples Forum in New
Rochelle. yesterday. Edward NJ Shepard told how
cities villages should be made beautiful through
the development of their public buildings and parks.
He made comparisons between European and Amer
lean cities. and declared that many opportunities
to make New York and Brooklyn attractive had
been wasted because OF the lack Of foresight on the
part Of ancestors. He was introduced by President
Finley of the College OF the City Of New-York.
His subject was THE Uses OF the Beautiful In the
City Administration"
Mr. Shepard denounced G lamentable waste Of
opportunity the construction Of the Brooklyn
Bridge because Of the failure to provide approaches
to the entrances similar to the gates and arches
In Rome Berlin and other Continental cities. He
said that because Of this property for mile
around the bridge approaches was worth 100000
less than II the terminals had been beautiful He
said:
When the bridge was constructed between New
York and Brooklyn there was an opportunity Tor
sioner to express beautiful ideas. But no, Idea

that the actual value Of property within mile Of

Mr. Shepard said that another great opportunity
went to waste when the city. sixty years ago. al
lowed Brooklyn Heights to become residence sec

ard.
Then, there the advertising signs and tho

Public sentiment ought TO prevent that ugliness."
Mr.. Shepard praised Mulberry Bend Park and
many improvements recently completed. and said
that the Mayors and aldermen in cities should be
chosen with some consideration OF their perception
