NEW CITY BUILDING PLAN
Rectangular Arrangement Of Streets
That Prevails In Ameries 10 Absn-
doned IN Europe.

The rectangular arrangement OF
streets, which prevails In most Ameri.
can cities has been generally aband
oned In Europe. so has the modifica-
tion OF II. by the addition OF radisl
avenues. OF which Washington is such
conspicuous example. Irregularity
has been substituted for regularity. al
though there Is no hard and fast rule
about H. Streets are laid out In
sweeping curves or parabolas. as In
parks or private estates. BY this
means recurring vistas OF parking and
houses are secured. as well as the
maximum or light. air. and open as
poets. Even In the poorer quarters
this plan Is pursued. This has com
pletely revolutionired the appearance
OF the city.
Open spaces for parks and play.
grounds are reserved at intervals
within easy walking distance OF al.
most every home. These are 80
numerous that one is impelled to be-
lieve they are looked upon as a neces-
sary part OF city building. as neces-
sary as schoolhouses or police sta
tions. These open spaces are very
varied. Some are round. others are
square; some are sunken gardens.
others suggest an Italian villa In
order that they may not obstruct
traffic. the open spaces are often to
one side OF the street The imagina-
tion OF the artist has been allowed
free play In the designing OF these
neighborhood parks
