The total area of the metropolitan region of New York is approximately 3,538,000 acres, but not more than 1,538,000 acres, less than one-half the area, will be used for residence, busi- ness or industry during the present cen- tury, says Thomas Adams, general di- rector of the regional plan. “On & little more than two-thirds of | the entire area, or 2,000,000 acres,” de- clares ‘Mr. Adams, “the present popula- tion of the United States could be persons to the acre—the present aver- | age density for the Borough of Brook- | lyn. On one-quarter of this.area there | is sufficient space for the predicted pop- ulation of the region in 1965. of the certainty that there will con- tinue to be great open areas in the region, it would be desirable to find some means of preserving permanently as open areas those parts of the region which could least economically be used for building.” —_— Realtors Add Members.
