FIFTH AVE. FLAT
BAN NOW IN COURT
Owners Start Action to Test
Right of City to Bar Tall
Apartment Houses.

Application was made yesterday be-
fore Supreme Court Justice Blur for an
cr.er compelling Charles Brady. Super
intendent of Buildings. to show cause
why that official should not approve the
application of Mary Brewster Jennings
for permission to build a thirteen story
apartment house at the southeast corner
of Fifth avenue and Ninety-sixth street
The application, which was made by
Robert Il. Knowles of the firm of
Taylor, Knowles & Hack, is returnable
to-day for argument 1t is the first
legal move on the part of number Of
wealthy and socially prominent owners
of Fifth avenue realty to checkmate the
Fifth Avenue Associations thus far sue
cessful campaign in the Board OF Esti-
mate to limit the height of apartment
houses in the Fifth avenue zone between
Sixtieth and Ninety-sixth streets to sew
enty-five feet
The order sets forth that the Jennings
application to erect the tall apartment
house on a plot, 1O0x150, was filed be-
fore the Board of Estimate passed the
amendment to the zoning law limiting
the height This vote was taken on No
vember rs, 1921. The application also
sets forth the contention that the Board
OF Estimates resolution was Illegal on
the ground that it should have been
passed by unanimous vote, because
more than 20 per cent. of the owners
affected opposed it.
A third contention is raised in the ap-
pl,cation to the effect that even though
the resolution was passed legally the
Jennings application should be approved
by reason of the fact that Fifth avenue
