Though the idea incorporated in the
plans of the new corporation originated
on the West Coast, it has not been ex-
tensively employed in this section of
the country. The idea is to set the
retail establishment far enough back
from the street to provide for the park
ing of the cars of all patrons who could
be served at the stores at one period,
it is explained. In this particular de-
velopment plans call for the provision
of parking space adequate to care for
70 automobiles, which will be parked on
the grounds under the care of a uni
formed attendant.
Another feature will be the develop
ment of wide, permanently covered
sidewalk running in front of the stores
and with walks connecting with the
street at two points.
The site recently acquired for this
development has frontage of 289 feet
on the east side of Connecticut avenue
between Ordway and Porter streets, and
contains an area of approximately 50,-
