Foss of New York has purchased as the Washington residence 'of his family the four-story semi- deiached Georgian house located at 1627 New Hampshire avenue, formerly the home of John H. Himes, former Representative from Ohio. ; The property was purchased through the office of Randall H. Hagner & Co., Inc., from Morris Cafritz. who acquired it recently from Mr. Himes as part payment in the purchase by the latter | of the Park Lane Apartments. The residence taken by Mr. Foss was understood to have brought a price in the neighborhood of $200,000. The property has a frontage on New Hampshire avenue of 75 feet and a depth of 110 feet. It contains 24 main rooms. There is a large garden on one side and at the rear is a large four-car garage. It adjoins the former home of Miss | May Adams and is opposite the homes | of Perry Belmont and the late Thomas | | Nelson ‘Page, and is in the vicinity of | | the Brazilian embassy, the Argentine | | embassy and the homes of Senator Goff | of West Virginia, Woodbury Blair and way without thinking of his accident insurance. If any one gets a bad break in this “made-to-order” town it will be the hired girls, who will have to look out on traffic tie-ups as they stir the soup but the home owner, who after all is the one who paid for the house, will be sitting on the edge of a quict garden, the association explains. Radburn _has been raised dircctly from a real estate deed with no mis- takes of early settlers to make the task difficult. It has been financed by New York_capitalists and is being built by the City Housing Corporation that has been engaged for some years in demon- !strations of how to increase the effici- ency of American homes. In this city, planned to house a popu- lation of 25000, a network of garden walks connect groups of houses and traverse the entire community without crossing a vehicular traffic street. These footpaths are reached from the garden doors of these houses that are built around short closed streets. so that only the few automobiles going directly to these houses will ever pass their door: The backs of the Radburn 8 front on the auxilliary streets on the theory that the noises, dirt and fumes from modern traffic is objectionable to the home owner, and that a few feet of front yard do not remove him far enough from this confusion. Therefore, | the Radburn houses are turned around so the living rooms, dining rooms and porches look out on gardens provided by the Yadburn plan and the kitchens look out on the ub” end streets.
