light; with its broad lawns and beau
tiful homes, is one of the show spots
of the city. And what is more than
this, 1t is q section of homes-in the
strict sense of the word.
That this district has been develop
ed along such modern and Utopian
lines is due to one man, perhaps, more
than all others. For years 1t has been
the aim of George A. Shreiner, Seven
teenth and Forster streets, to create a
district of homes in this section of the
city.
He has succeeded.
Ideal Home Section Grows
Another section of Harrisburg that
is being developed along almost Uto-
plan lines is that part of the city which
lies east and south of Market and
Twenty-frst streets. Containing 131
acres and covered with a network of
broad, well-built roads. that wind in
symmetrical curves throughout the
tract, Bellevue Park is one of the most
ideal home sections of the city.
This section was formerly the IA
nous Bellevue Nursery Farms of the
Jacob Haehnlen estate. Years ago
some of the finest grapes raised in the
State were grown here. The name
was handed down from an old German
count who came to this country years
and years ago to set up a country es-
of the continent
On July /, 1909, the tract was
thrown open to development by the
Union Real Estate and Investment
Company. Since that time twenty
three of the finest homes in the city
have been built here and three more
are now under construction.
Development of this section has been
along systematic lines planned by War
rem H. Manning. the landscape archi-
tect who planned Harrisburg's park
system. Perpetual building restric-
tions insure a good class of homes.
In Bellevue Park there is an ade-
quate supply of city water. electricity
and gas-and all wires are under
ground. Lying as it does, 200 feet
above the river, and with a large park
tract with wading pools, tennis courts
and other amusement features running
through it, Bellevue is truly place of
homes.
West End Extension
Other sections that have been grow
ing rapidly in recent years include the
district above Maclay street. Here
Christian L. Long, Joseph Shearer and
Gettys and Gettys have taken an active
part in the development of the city.
At PaXtang, just east of the city, is
another thriving home section. In
Highspire, too, many new homes are
going up.
Above the city is a rapidly expand
inG community at Riverside. Across
the river is Washington Heights, where
many beautiful and modern homes are
doing up; Summerdale, comparative
ly new settlement, and Enola, thriv-
ing borough.
Taking all in ALL Harrisburg and its
enviTons is showing a rapid, healthy
growth.
