II is this combination OF high alti-
tude and general excellence OF rapid

be along the line OF the White Plains

EXPERTS EXPECT BIG
BOOM IN EAST BRONX
Think Earliest Demand for Lots Will
Be Along Line of White Plains Ave
nue. Elevated Extension

In anticipation OF the approaching
building boom. real estate men and
apartment builders in The Bronx are
understood to be making a close adj
vanced study OF the available oppor-
tunities along the line Of the White
Plains avenue elevated extension to
within a few blocks of Mount Vernon
This Is an eventuality to have been ex-
pected, as the earliest demand for lots
under the existing housing conditions
will be for those of moderate value. in
order 10 Offset the present high con-
struction costs, which It Is conceded
will not be reduced to lower levels for
some years to come.
AS in the old days. before The Bronx
was made part OF the city or New
York by the act OF annexation In 1895,
White Plains avenue Is to-day the d.
rect route from the lower Bronx
through Mount Vernon TO White Plains
The thoroughfare OF to-day is the old
highway of the Revolutionary period
that runs along the high ridge which
formed the backbone of the east Bronx
between the Bronx River and Long Is
land Sound. II Is to-day. as then, the
lire OF least resistance because OF the
construction OF the White Plains avenue
extension of the Manhattan and Bronx
subway system north from 177th street
to within a few blocks OF the Mount
Vernon city line.
Previous to the act of annexation In
1895 this entire section OF The Bronx
was composed OF a number Of old es-
tablished villages. many OF which dated
back to the early Sos

early settlement was formed by the

country and organized The Associated
Lace Makers Company, which developed

One Of the largest OF these many vii
lage settlements was Wakefield. which
occupied the area on both sides OF White
Plains road west to the Bronx River
and east to Barnes avenue from about
214th to 236th street. North OF this
point Jacksonville, one Of the earlier
settlements, ran from 236th to 23sth
street along White Plains road. North
Of Jacksonville and extending to the
Mount Vernon city line. west OF the
White Plains road. was the old settle
ment known as Washingtonville.
Edenwald lay east OF the White

and the Mount Vernon city line.

To plan an apartment house with a
lneart, to build into its walls a human
element OF consideration for its future
tenants. for their children. their happi-
ness. health. welfare and comfort, has
been the life dream OF very busy
architect.
Though busy as he has been planning
building after building. he has been
Illuminating upon an idea OF humani-
Itariansm and building combined, so
that house might become a home. or,
ito be more explicit, that an apartment
might become a home with all OF tho
lhealthful conveniences OF a cottage in
the country. This at first seemed rather
difficult to do when one must build the
house in the city. and congested city
at that. where the only breathing space
available seems to be the grilled fire
escape, usually over a steaming court
Tor yard reeking with the soapy odor of
very fresh laundry. But this architect
did not despair; he thought the harder.
land after years of effort he has solved
the problem.
Within a few days the City and SUI
burban Homes Company will break
ground for the first apartment house
with a heart-ln fact, the first four
apartment houses with hearts-for the
house with heart is TO be a group or
