Will Cure Housing Ills
Competition in Building Will
Produce Many Homes; Urges
People to Buy

I'VE are all quite prepared to

from such movements as the Own

struction of homes, which, in turn, is
the best insurance Of good govern

discussing the coming exposition,
which will open in the 69th Regiment
Armory on April %.
"The people may look forward
with bright prospects to the wear
ahead and with reasonable anticipa-
tion that increased competition in new
building will not only tend to per.
manently. cure the housing shortage,
but speed on early reduction Of rents.

the men responsible for the success Of

$500 Big Flats and
Small Homes Under
Way in Queens
Greatest Home Building
Movement in History of
Borough; Projects Will
Cost a. Millions to Build

With a record of nearly 1000 appli-
cations for permits for new buildings,
issued in March by the BuiIding 1UHitHpv
Bureau, Queens Borough passes all its
previous records, as we'll as the record
of every large community in the United
States.
This makes a grand total for the
first three months Of 1922 of $500
permits for buildings, to cost $4,000
900. or more than half the total for
the entire year Of 1921, which was the
banner year up to that time, when per-
were issued. In addition, permits for
additions and alterations to cost S.
100000 have also been granted.
superintendent John W. Moore of
the Building Bureau says that work
has been started on at least 95 per
cent Of the jobs for which permits
have been granted. ~ AM sure" he
said, "this condition will be continued
and I expect the April filings to be
larger than were those of March"
This great activity is not confined to
any particular section Of the borough
In Long Island City all fields of hous-
ing construction are covered, the
apartment house type being largely in
excess Of any other section Of the
borough.
In each of the other wards the build
Ing is confined almost exclusively to
one and two-family houses, largely of
the smaller type and suitable for the
FAMILY of moderate means. These are
SOLD and occupied as fast as completed
1T Is estimated that the end Of 1922
will see Queens with a population in
excess of 100000.

Home Ownership Idea
Seems to Have Caught On
Observers Say That Country
Will Have More Owners Than
Renters in Two Years

The home ownership idea seems to
have taken root. The opinion is ex-
pressed by men who know that the
United States will have in a few years
as many, if not moro, home owners
than house renters. An indication of
the trend to ownership was the large
attendance at the Home Show in CHI
cago.
Robert II. Sexton, who will manage
the "Own Your Home" Exposition,
which is to be held in this city the
latter part of this month, said yester-
day on his return from Chicago that
10000 persons attended the show.
despite week of continual snow, sleet
and RAIN. 1T was not. a crowd of idle
gazers' ne said, but one with purpose,
for many building sites were purchased
from realty companies at the show
and number of building contracts
were given to builders.

EssexF ellsMountainTown
Within Sight of New York
Selected by Drexels Because of
Natural Beauty; Develop.
menf Continued

Essex Fells, which is soon TO he
placed before folk who are contemplat
ing buying or building in the suburbs.
IS really mountain settlement. 1t is
nigh IN the Watching Mountains,
ABOUT hfteen miles from the heart of
nnancial New York as the crow flies.
All the land to the east-towns, viii
lagos and even the greatest of them
all, New York City-lie like great
caldron, with the attractive mountain
settlement up at the edge.
The Drexels bought it many years
ago. The natural beauty of the spot
attracted the investment, and with
their millions they set out to make it
one Of the finest residential settle
ments in the metropolitan district. The
best talent in landscaping and building
was secured to capitalize the beauty of
the hillside. Spots where natures
handlwork was inferior were built IN,
and the entire stretch of many acres
was subdivided with roads and bride
paths that curved and twisted through
the place.
Many trees were planted to take the
place of those destroyed by tine and
man. The planting was done so skill
fully that the new forest looks as if it
had sprung up there.
The place has all the attractions of
the suburban home development. The
Essex Fells Country Club has one of
the best laid out eiehteen-hole courses
in northern New Jersey. Another
links, in process of construction by
members of the Newark Athletic Club,
will provide thirty-six holes, besides
which there will be polo
field, trapshooting ground tennis
courts and other recreational facili-
ties. The many miles of hnaut;frl
winding roads are perfect for horse
back riding.
Essex Fells, being wholly a resi-
dental park, has no stores, but this
lack is provided for by the merchants
of Caldwell, an adjacent town. De-
livery is made by all New York de-
partment stores.

Raids on Zone
Regulations Baked
By Estimate Board
Support Given Restrictions
Boon to Development, for
1t Removes Uncertainty
From Realty Investments
By Edward M. Bassett
Counsel to Zoni1lg Commission,

counsel 10 ZON0lg COMMISSION
The greater New York building zone
law has now been in operation over
five years. The protective requirements
are shown on maps, known as height
area and use. The charter provides
that changes in the maps can be made
only by the Board of Estimate. The
aggregate changes are extremely small
in area, showing the remarkable per-
manence of the protection of the zon-
ing system.
In the years 1916 to 1921, inclusive,
1853 applications for changes were
1874 were denied. These figures tend to
show that changes are not easily OBJ
tanned. This is As it should be, be-
cause when an owner builds according
to the zoning requirements ne ought
to be protected against easy changes
Of surrounding requirements.
OF the total changes there were four
in 1916, forty-three in 1917, twenty-six
IN 1918, twenty in 1919 twenty seven
in 1920 and thirty eight in 1921. 1t
would appear from the figures that
during the last three years the map
changes were fairly proportioned to
the normal growth and change of the
city.
Use map changes were 143, area map
eleven and height map four. 1t is
quite possible that as the amount Of
new construction increases more
changes proportonally viii be made in
the area and height maps.
In 1916 the four changes all relaxed
the restrictions; in 1917 thirty-siX re-
laxed and seven strengthened the re-
strictions; in 1918 twenty relaxed and
six strengthened; in 1919 thirteen re-
Taxed and seven strengthened; in 1920
twelve relaxed and fifteen strength
ened; in 1921 fifteen relaxed and twenz
ty-three strengthened In other words.
in 1916 there was no strengthening, in
1917 the strengthening as compared to
relaxation rose to 19 per cent in 1918
to 80 per cent, in 1919 to 81 per cent,
in 1920 to 125 per cent, and in 1921 to
1853 per cent 1t will be seen that dur
ing the last two years the strengthen-
ing changes exceeded the relaxing
changes, and that each year the pro-
portion of strengthening changes in
creased. These figures show not only
official support Of the coming plan, but
they show clearly that property owners
are gradually favoring the strength
ening of the zoning requirements rath-
er than their relaxation.
The building zbne system of New
York may be deemed a success Other
cities which have recently adopted it
or are preparing their maps may well
be encouraged by the experience of
New York.
