The lots range in size irom 25 feet in width by 100 feet in depth to lots 26x136 feet. Every lot has a wide tear alley. The subdivision plan was made by the U. S. Housing Corporation following the suggestions of the ablest housing experts in America. IMPROVEMENTS: Some of these lots have water. sewer, gas. electricity and paved streets.
