zeal contents are 1858 feet, including

tors, purchasing methods and connec-
tlons, and practical knowledge OF

ciety of CivU Engineers.
Selecting the site upon which to
build Tribune House No. involved
all of the problems which usually con-
front the individual hunting for 8
suitable building lot in the suburbs
Of New York
First, the building plans committee,
having selected the five-room Colonial
frame house, Plan No. G, as one from
which to build, decided to locate this
dwelling on the Long Island Sound
side of Westchester County.
Then started the search for the
right location, having in mind the
various requirements which man with
small family would be forced to con-
slider. Various suburban communities
and properties were inspected. Larch-
mont Gardens, at Larchmont, N. Y.
was finally selected for tho following
reasons:
Purchase price Of land-plots so feet
by l25 feet, with all important improve
ments, could be purchased at from
Accessibility-only 38 minutes via
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
electric service from Grand Central
Statiou, distance Of II miles. The
Boston Post Road for automobile travel
Is three blocks distant from the site
purchased. Trolley cars connect with
nearby communities and beaches on
the Sound.
Environment-It was found that the
community was composed generally of
desirable and congenial families. Re-
strictions placed by the Larchmont
Gardens Company, owners, and George
Howe, real estate sales agent, permit
only Of the erection Of single family
dwellings.
Features of Site
The development is we'll laid out in
good, wife streets. Through the prop
erty, one block from the lot, runs tho
little Sheldrake River, forming a small
lake in the center of the Gardens. Sew
eral golf clubs are within easy reach.
On the property are tennis courts. In
q hilly country above the Sound. level
and naturally we'll drained, the health
conditions should be good.
