JRE NEW YORK. 4 PRACTICAL PROPHECY

lecture is that building is not meant to be
a permanent thing. That is the difference,
Mr.. Corbett says, between American and
English ideas IN building.
Sl1yscrapers are not intended to last over
fifty years. The movement of business cen
ters, the development in modern equipment.
overtal5e building each year. A twenty-story
steel frame structure at Broadway and Wall
Street was recently torn down to make way
for a newer, more suitable one. The ele-
ment of change is the biggest architectural
factor in the growth of q city, and as New
York has changed in the last twenty years, 30
It will change in the future.
What prominent buildings now standing
were here twenty years ago? Every one re-
calls the Parkhurst church ON Madison Square,
one of the last and finest pieces Of work of
the late Stanford White It stood for exact
ly twelve years before :. was sacrificed TO
the onslaught OF business. If building can
be adapted to new needs it's life is prolonged.
But so marvellous and radical will be the in
ventions of the next twenty years, architects
agree, that IN most cases it will be more
practicable TO tear down the steel skeleton
than to remodel it and to cover its poor bones
with fresh plaster. Modern equipment is SO
Intimately concerned with the very fiber of
building, the lighting system running like
veins through It's walls, the plumbing through
its vitals that radical changes mean tearing
down a building.
'The present architectural trend reflects
the spirit of the times. 1t meets demand
for better sanitary conditions; there is no rea-
son why it should not be beautiful, and
doubt If there is any truer beauty than the
utilitarian.'' These were the architects words
in discussing the new order. "The idea is
truly American, and a marked contrast TO-
European cities Of medieval times, when mp
per stories thrust further and further ont
over the street until light and air were ex-
cluded."
We are not alcne IN the terrncfng plan,
which characterizes wise old Oriental cities Of
an exotic splendcr and magnifcence to which
we do not even aspire. The primitive Pueblo
Indian of the Southwest also lives in ter
raced house, because it presents the least
structural difficulties.
It does not seem possible that these superb
creations which comb the clouds can evax be-
cut of date, but landlords viii be lamenting
the sacrifice Of their castles In the air. and
the light, strong, swaying, sky-pierring PIN
nacles must succumb to time and change, X
we are to believe the prediction Of builder
of scrapers
New-York tribune., 1921-09-18
|" WENTY years hence New York City
II So say the builders who have de-


signed the heaven-piercing pinnacles
Of to-day.
The great chaos Of structures that is New
York will be ruled by law and order-archi-
1sctural law and the order Of harmony. These
must come to pass as result Of that regula-
ton called 'the building law which
Will work great changes and will so alter the
sky line of Manhattan that we of to-day would
not recognize it. Such is the consensus of
architectural opinion.
A celebrated architect predicts the nature
OF these changes and outlines the possibin-
sles OF building under the zone law. "Gone
will be the skyscraper as we know it," says
Harvey W Corbett, of Helmie & Corbett.
Owners Of Office buildings will lose millions
IN potential rents, the dark canyons Of Wall
Street will be relics of the Stone Age, but
there will be light and air in every street."
The artist, Hugh Ferriss, has caught the
IDEA IN the accompanying picture. Enthralled
with the possibilities set forth in the archi-
sscTs prediction, his magic pencil has called
up the vision evoked by Mr.. Corbett's proph
ecy. He depicts the marvellous type of build
ing which may be developed within the lirni-
vast collection Of pyramids, city Of
pfeclp1tous terraces, of spires that no longer
sprlng straight from the street-a city whose
great towers rise only from the center of

Flcate beauty against the sky or to leap in
waite glory into the clouds. A sky line of
eolossal steps, vistas Of unbelievable harmony,

way the New York Of 1941 is visualized.

scorched curb, lies quietly lovely lake--a
pool which mirrors trees and sky.
Directly opposite, at the left of the drawing,
is great square of classic design, with an
open air theater upon the first terrace.
Titanic steps lead to a classic temple above.
The pyramidal building occupying an entire
city block in the center of the picture seems
as daring a conception of structural possibili-
ties as can be portrayed. Here the lines Of
the 'szone'' are defined by four stupendous
buttresses, worthy Of Cheops, which flank
the building at each corner. The space now
grudged to elevators would here be restored
to Offices and within the buttresses would be
immense escalators, upon which, as on Jacobs
ladder, a throng would be forever ascending
and descending.
In the distance at the right is seen the
downtown city of to-day, with those remain
ing scrapers which have stood the test of
time. Athwart the city shafts Of light strike
upon a vast tower that rises from the center
of square. An Acropolis stands in the
shadow Of mystic Gothic spires.
Under the operation of the law this change
has already begun to be felt. The advent of
the terraced building is already affecting
the appearance of the city. Nothing is more
characteristic of the times, says the architect
than the fact that much of our most important
architecture is not permanent.
The new order will not make itself felt in
residential sections made up of individual

as in home zones and succeeding stories viii
ascend at a somewhat sleeper pitch than is
conceded in purely residential sections. Where
Will the new churches place their steeples?
Must they rise from the center Of the edifce
like an Oriental temple?
1t will be practicable only for owners of
large pieces of land to erect tower buildings,
by not terracing, and the straight mono
lithic shaft rising from the curb must go.
Never again will such canyons as those of
Wall Street be allowed to grow up. They will
remain monuments of the dark stone ages.
The tide of architectural effort toward lofty
structures the wave OF competition to see
who could cast up the highest Office building,
has apparently reached its pinnacle, and now
the tendency is to recede. Contrary to the
predictions Of those who have looked to see
the thirty-story skyscraper grow to sixty
stories, the celestial aspirations of builders
will be automatically arrested by the
law The pedestrian will not see it all, any
more than man standing in the shadow of
foothills can the snow-capped peak be-
yond, and that is why the full effect Of the
change will be evident only in the skyline, or
from the rooftops, the artist shows.
The change will be slower in downtown
districts, although a twenty-six-story sky
scraper following the zone plan is soon to be
erected or the old Sun site. One of the most
striking features of twentieth century archi-

homes, but where the tall apartment house
fiourishes it will be marked.
Viewed from a distance, the skyscraper
viii present radical and startling departure
from the present type. AS the architectural
evolution is pictured twill be not only har-
tnonious but distinctive, and of proportions
that, seen from the Hudson or from New York
Harbor, will be tremendously impressive. All
though sky line of the New York Of 1941
will be entirely different, it will present just
as imposing a profile as the present one. In
the change of silhouette the present harmony
Of rectilinear lines will not be lost.
Speaking with the authority Of one who Is
himself designer Of one Of the most con-
spicuous skyscrapers on Manhattan, Mr.. Cor
bett says that no more of the familiar sky
scrapers viii be possible under the zone build
ing law, and that even the greatest of these
may be left behind in the march of time. The
full force of the new law will be felt only in
business sections.
And as new sections are built up the-e will
be a restful influence due to the uniform
height Of the facades Of the buildings The
effect on the pedestrian will be one Of greater
harmony. Architects seem to feel that the
nervous strain Of New York business men
will be somewhat relieved by this harmony
in the height OF first terraces.
The uptown section up to the present time
has shown a tendency to follow the lead of
the downtown district in building scrapers.
New-York tribune., 1921-09-18

But it will be so no longer. A man walking
on the street will not see the upper stories of
any but the highest buildings. There will un-
doubtedly be q good deal of variety in the
height and width Of these upper terraces, and
dormers and buttresses, which are permitted
in certain proportions, will add interest.
Buildings may be designed after any style
the owner ikes-Gothc, Italian Renaissance,
Greek Moorish, as long as the architect keeps
within the zone line. One must imagine
immense cone being placed over city square
Within this the structure must be built.
Picture to yourself apartment house, or
an entire block of apartment houses, many
cf which are right in the center Of business
sections, terraced either in a few large steps
or in many shorter ones Fascinating roof
gardens could easily be made on these ter
races Far above the clatter of the street,
and safe from the dangers of traffic, apart
ment house children could play on the grass
or amid the bright flowers of All old-fashioned

Green terraces might encircle the apart
ment house Of 1941, recalling the hanging
gardens Of Babylon Life for the city cliff

than at present. Tennis in the clouds,

of the Judge Immediately after taking the
OATH His honor was naturally wild, and I
n,yself was somewhat put out. 1t didn't
help my case any, as you can imagine. The
magistrate hotly demanded All explanation,
and after conference in Russian with my
man the truth came out. His intention, it
appears. was to commit perjury, but he be-
leved. steadfastly, that the divine anger had
been averted by his vulgar act. His con-
science was thoroughly at ease about the mat
ter.

left hand firmly against the side, crooking the
second finger of the right hand, and so forth.
"Once had client who extended the index

Following this he laid his left hand In the
palm of the right, with the first finger OF the
right pointing downward. By criss-cross

passed into the first finger of the left hand

detached from the binding influence of the
oath, he felt at liberty to garble his testimony
in any form that pleased him.
The case against the defendant, your smart
New Yorker and others who treat modern
superstitions with levity, could easily rest now
and the verdict Of guilty be assured. but
