WOOD, DoLSoN co. TO.
SELL GARDEN FLATS
Manhattan Brokers Appointed
Agents for Apartments at
Jackson Heights.

For the convenience of prospective
purchasers Of garden apartments at
Jackson Heights, especially those who
reside on the west side of Manhattan,
the Greensboro Corporation has per-
fected sales arrangement with the
Wood. Dolson Company. Inc, which
controls large number of apartment
houses west OF Central Park and north
of the park on Cathedral Heights and
on Washington Heights.
In discussing yesterday the new
sales arrangement. the extension of the
tenant Ownership idea and the demand
for tenant owned garden apartments at
Jackson Heights, w. II, Dolson, presi-
dent of the Wood Dolson Company,
Inc, said
1--WE have found that there exists
among the large number of our apart
ment tenants a strong demand Tor
apartments to be purchased. AS the
supply of these in the Borough of Man
haitian is small, in comparison with the
large number OF houses in which the
apartments are rented and not sold, we
believe the sales arrangement We have
entered into with the Queensboro Corr
poration will be of distinct advantage
to our many clients.
Having made a close study of jack
SON Heights before entering into this
sales arrangement, ! am prepared to
say that the community established
there by the greensboro Corporation
has no equal that know of anywhere
in the United States or in Europe, jack
son Heights is precisely what the own
ers claim for It, the largest and most
progressive twentieth century tenant
owned garden apartment colony in the
world
"The elevator and non-elevator gar
den apartment homes erected at jack
son Heights compare favorably with
the best we have to offer In Manhat-
tan, and jackson Heights has the ad-
vantage of low price land. which has
enabled the Greensboro Corporation to
build houses around unusually spacious
garden courts.
"These garden courts add greatly to
the attractiveness and desirabIlity of
the apartments and would be practically
impossible to duplicate In the Borough
of Manhattan, where land values are so
much higher and where II Is essentially
necessary to capitalize land as highly
as possible"

LOT BUYERS PLAN BIG
BUILDING OPERATIONS
Forest Hills West Owners to
Make Dirt Fly.

With q building program calling
for the expenditure of approximately
S2.000,000 scheduled for next spring at
Forest Hills West, the newest suburban
residential colony, will doubtless mahl
a mark for the construction of homes by
individuals that will stand for some
time. That this record total will be
greatly increased IL not doubled during
the latter months of 1929 Is indicated
by the fact that this figure represents
less than one-third Of the plans Of the
552 buyers who absorbed the tract OF
some $500 lots of the Matawok Lana
Company at an auction conducted last
summer by Joseph p. Day.
The figures were obtained from ques-
tionnaires sent out by the Forest Hills
West Association. an organization
formed by the lot buyers and which Is
doing something uuique In the Develop
ment Of home community.
Formed soon after the auction sale.
through the efforts OF James II. Muir.
ply OF the Joseph r. Day organization,
who was made its president, the asso-
ciation was quick to enlist the services
of a number of the buyers. including
prominent builders. architects. engineers
and others identified with the building
industry.

history Of the site was revealed. In 1901
the Mayor OF New York conveyed to
John Wheeler twenty-three and one
third acres OF land In the vicinity, and
the site of the property just sold was
part OF the conveyance. The cost of
the acreage was $3.50, which reduced

down to a. valuation Of about s5. In
1885 Anthony La Porte sold the property

s250,000. The present sale shows an in
crease OF only about 100000 over that
figure.
