i'm his hand. The Broohynites immediate

down.

ouire the meadow lands along the border
OF Jamaica Bay. between Lnwood street
and Montauk avenue, to develop INTO
what may some day be called Jamaica
Bay Park The property can be secured
cheaply at present, II is said, and
breathing space will soon be required
there. Between the growth Of the bust
ness interests that will be attracted by
the jamaica Bay Improvement and the
advance of the dwellings of the people
the land will soon be taken for building
purposes. This will raise It's value TO

will not find II practicable to purchase the
plot, and the neighborhood will be de-
prived Of its opportunity.
