Of Irving Rutland, OF The real estate
firm of The Rutland & Benjamin Corpo-
ration. Mr.. Rutland would not tell whom
he was acting for. With the skill that
comes as q result Of years OF nego-
tiating he had secured practically ell
the houses before it became gener-
ally known that any one IVES interested
III realty in that block. When it
was said that the New York Telephone
Company was after the property Mr..
Rutland did remove the impression, fo3
it helped him to secure other houses.
He obtained all the dwellings wanted
except one, which stands on Forty
ninth Street. two or three houses from
the east end Of the row. Even when
he held contracts on twenty-onc
houses, eleven on Forty-eighth Street
and ten on Torty-ninth Street. he re-
fused to tell what were the plans Tor
the block. In time the houses became
the property of the Turtle Bay Garden
Company. This gave the first inkling
OF what was planned.
War Made 1t Possible
1t is hard to believe looking s.. this
attractive colony to-day, that war was
responsible for it. Had there been no
war there would not have been a Turtle
Bay Garden colony 1t was only when
the order of Secretary Of the Treasury
McAdoo had stopped the construction
Of buildings except for governmental
uses, causing a shortage of homes in
the fine residential section through the
center of the city, that the Turtle Bay
development came to life. Long Will
Be remembered that order of Secretary
hcAdoo stopping all unnecessary build
ing work that the builders might be
marshaIed INTO the great army f
artisans to supply the warriors At the
front with things to win battles.
Money or influence could not help
the homeseeAer in the days that fol
lowed. Homes were scarce and ex-
pensive. Many were forced to take un-
desirable places or be without homes.
Not only was it vexing to have to live
IN unpleasant accomno odations, but the
rentals demanded were maddenine.
Many persons were compelled to estab-
lish homes in hotels.
Came Into Reng Over Teacups
Turtle Bay Garden came into being
one afternoon over tea table in the
apartment of Mrs Victor Sorchan, now
the wife Of Dr. Walton Martin. in the
Ritz-Carlton Hotel. So disturbed were
several OF the guests by the shortage
Of agreeable homes for rent that they
had to talk about the terrible state o.
affairs. Solution Of the problem
naturally was discussed This devel-
New-York tribune., 1921-10-16

oped the idea that folks get together
and solve the housing question them
selves.
Having III mind the transformations
made in houses in blocks in the East
Sixties, it was thought that if a mum
Der Of small dwellings in a nice section
of the East Side could be secured an
attractive home settlement could be de
veloped. The idea grew. The more
thought was given TO the scheme the
more entcing it became. 1t was decided
that such Il settlement could be made
he most in resting in New York be-
cause it would permit of original ideas
in housings and surroundings such as
had never been tried here before.
Modelled After Old Villa
Being folks who had Travelled, parts
Of the Old World which had made
strong Impressions on them we're Of
Tered as inspirations for the proposed
colony of homes. It was finally de
cided that u little villa in ancient
seen and admired, should be the model
for the settlement.
The location Of the colony had al
ready been decided upon when Edward
{. Dean, architect, was asked to plan
the transformation. He was told that
the aim was TO make it like an old
Italian villa, BY the time Mr.. Ru-
land had secured the eleven houses on
Eoriy-cighth Street and the ten on For
ty-nlnth Street, being 227 to 247 East
forty-eighth Street and 226 TO 23S
and 2A2 to 246 East Forty-ninth
street, the architect had corn pleted
his plans for charging the front, rear
and interior of every one Of the twen-
ty~one houses. They were Of the old
.5rownstone front type, erected in the
turtic Bay section many years before
tenements came. This was an advan-
tage rather than detrinent in work
ing the changes. The architect found
beauty II the old houses which he
preserved or placed elsewhere 10 hetter

Plans to Forsake Murray Hill Section for Home Near
Mrs. William X. Vanderbilt Sr in Sutton Place;
Flat Trading Mostly Eas; Side Houses

Miss Anne Morgan, whose father and
brother spent many thousands of dol
lars to preserve the residential charac-
ter Of the Murray Hill section, is to
forsake Madison Avenue for home in
the Sutton Square home colony along

property at Sutton Place, one docr
from where Mrs. William X. Wander

home on the corner. The property
purchased Is four-story house, and
Is to be rcmodeled by Mott B. Schmidt,
the architect who designed the new
Vanderbilt home and other houses in
the neighborhoNd. 1t will represent q
cost OF about Sl25.000.

the walls are windows protected with

leads east and west from the fountain
Off this walk are the private gardens
attached to the houses. They are in
closed by brick walls few feet nigh.
When the property was taken over
the garden was divided into twenty
one parts with ugly board fences. Little
grass remained, for no care or nourish-
mcnt was given to it. When the build
ers had finished expert gardeners took
over the twenty-one back yards. A
number of large treeg were purchased
and lifted over the roofs of the houses
and lowered into the garden.

two houses at the west end of the
Forty-ninth Street row. Their house
is, perhaps, The finest in the colony
1t has been rebuilt at great expense.
The library is two stories high. Wood
wori; centuries old has been pur-
chased and built into the houses. One
of ths old cathedrals of France is
said to have contributed most Of the
beams and paneling in the library.
The colony, it is expected, will have
important bearing on home building in
the future. 1t has illustrated what
can be done and st an outlay of money
much less than what home in tho
Fifth Avenue or Park Avenue district
would cost.

lower half of Manhattan.
The extension Of the Greensboro

only to Times Square, but giving it
connection with either the present
way in Eighth Avenue, so that Queens
passengers may have continuous rides
downtown.
The extension Of the Corona "L'' tc
Flushing and beyond.
The extension Of the Astoria "L'' to
Steinway and beyond
The extension OF the Liberty Avenue
81" from South Richmond Hill tc

the Brooklyn elevated lines OF the
B. r. T., eliminating the present neces-
sity for passengers crossing and re-
crossing the East River
The restoration Of service on such
trolley Ines throughout The boroueh
which have ceased operation, and the
construction OF additional trolley ia
cilities.
Additional local service on thes Ions
Island Railroad from the terminals il
Manhattan, Long Island City snd

tions in Queens, and better connections
with the Rapid Transit lines at such
points as Woodside transfer station
