Progress of Improvements on Mr. Stewart's Hempstead Plains Purchase—Most of the Now City Surveyed, Mapped and Laid Out—Description of the Parks, Streets and Buildings. The improvements so auspiciously and success- fully inangorated upon Mr. A. T, Stewarts Hemp- stead Plains purchase are being proseeuted with an energy as sleepless and untiring 9s the work to be accomplished is vast and comprehensive. Enough of the proposed plan of laying our this future favored place of suburban abode—this Garden City, the pro- spective name given it—has been developed to give an idea of its grand and unsurpassed beauty when everything shall have been completed in ac- cordance with the designs already matured by Mr. John Kellum, the architect, under whose personal supervision the work is being prosecuted, The most pleasing feature of all 18 that this gigan- tic work of improvement, this conversion of an arid plain into a great suburban city of beautiful abodes and spacious avenues, lined with magnificent shade trees, extensive parks, blossoming with beautiful flowers and perpetually verdant with emeraid trees and shrubbery, and with winding gravelled walks and delightful drives and diminutive lakes, 18 not stimulated by the biighting spirit of seductive specuiation, but with the high and noble purpose of giving comfortable homes to thousands im moderate circumstances, of refined and cultivated famuies, whom the exactions of landlords compel at present to exhaust nearty all their earnings and in- cowe In payment of high rents, It ia no easy matter to select a starting point of description of the improvements in progress. To the casual observer everything appears to be in @ very confused and inchoate state, Scattered about are corps of engineers aying out the grounds, arranging the courses of the avenues and streets and marking out the boundaries of the parks, In a temporary oMce erected for their accommodation are draughtsmen busily preparing maps for future guidauce. All about are gangs of workmen busy with axes, picks and shoves, removing hedges, fences and other obstructions, and laying out the streets, The maze of bewlderment that, like a dargiy confusing! shadow, seems to overhang everything, ts, aft Jew words o1 short but expilcit explanation by the accomplished and skilled architect, in whose mind’s eye the whole map ts already majestically complete, slowly but methodically dispelied. | It is not until alter listening to this explanation tbAt the visitor— and curiosity attracts hundreas here daily, though the most go away more bewildered than when they came—begins tairly to appreciate the massive grandeur of the ungertaking and amount ot labor hecessary to is successtul accomplishment, To begin with, the entire western section from Hemp- stead village on the south to Mineola and the Long Island Ratiroad on the north, and frum the track of the branch railroad running into Hempstead on the east to Hyde Park aud Its surroundings on the west, has been careiuliy surveyed, mapped and latd out Into streets, avenues and parks. ‘bis portion of tie work, as thus far accomplisiied, has been most care- fuliy and accurately done and with the strictest and most sedulous regard to thé natural topography of theiand, The drstin order, however. oi the imme- diate improvements will be made in the section embraced by the village of Hempstead on the south, Alincola On te north, the branca track on the east and the Court House on Clowesville road on the west, thence along south to and following Cherry Valley w the southern line of the purchase, Several parks, em- bracing from fifty to one hundred and fifty acres, will be inciuded in the Itmits just described. The principal park will be about midway between Hemp- stead and Mineola, und, being made to conforin to the topography of the lana, will be nearly triangular in shape. This park, the largest to be laid out, will be @ model of beauty and completeness. The ground, which is gently unduiating, possesses all ine natural features requisite for its couversion tnto a park of unsurpassed beauty—romantic ¢ells, high points fora pleasing and picturesque view of tue encompassing city and its far sway surroundings, gracefully winding walks, lovely drives and glassy lakes giving compieteness to the picture. In fact all tne parks will be gems of rural beauty—the greatiy attractive feature of this Garden City of the luture. From what has been written a general 1dea can be obtained of how these thousands of acres are to be laid out. Tae avenues avd streets will be all of good width, none of them Jess than eigtity feet wide, Dity feet for ihe roadways and fifteen feet on each side for the sidewalks. The roads will be weil graveiied, firm, solid and suostantial. As mapped out the blocks will be from 1,000 to 1,600 feet in length and trom 400 to 600 feet wide. The variation in length aad width of the biocks will be made to conform to the natural features and drainage of the land. To avold tameness and sameness a number of avennes will run diagonally. The corner lots will be about 250 feet square and the other lots Jrom 200 vo 225 feet front with 250 feet depih. A large hotel with 1,000 feet front and 600 feet depth iy to be built tn the immediate vicinity of the depot for the railroad, As regards the line of the railroad, this has not yet been definitely settied, except on the western side, where it will come about the centre of the land running north and south, and thence running east-southeast until tt crosses Cherry Valley, at which point a ffne iron bridge will be built, the present carriage road being about twenty feet below the general level of the Jand sur- rounding it, This matier of the ratlroad however, Wil be arranged 80 a8 to give the best praciicabie accommodations to the resideuts in coming jrom and gotng to New York.
