ERROR IN STREET SITE COSTLY.
Nitchell-ave., in Flushing, Cuts off Strip OF
Valuable Property.

It has just been discovered that an error in open
ing street in Flushing will prevent the develop
nent OF a large of valuable property. About
two weeks ago q tract of land in Whitestone-ave,
Flushing was sold TO John ". Crawford at top
notch price-in fact, the highest ever recorded.
Last week. the Hicks property just one block
south In Whitestone-ave., from that purchased by
Mr. Crawford. was sold. and the price was so lar
below what the other tract brought as to create
considerable comment 1t has just been learned
that the difficulty that prevented the property
bringing better price is the fact that IN cutting
MitcheIl-ave through gore strip was left on that
side OF the Hicks property. which shut on about
eight hundred feet OF frontage This lean gore
strip owned by the Peck estate, and 1t was found
impossible TO purchase il This circumstance will
prevent the development of the Hicks property by
laying out cross streets in the regular way as too
much of the land would be wasted. 1t has been
decided by the purchasers therefore TO lay It out
like a park in irregular shaped lots, with winding
walks and drives
