Building ofthe Home As a Matter of Economy Home Communities Notes the Progress Scored During Year in Metropolitan Resident- ial Expansion. BY H. 6. M’KNIGHT. Qujet conditions have prevailed in suburban real estate through the past year, yet there has been immense prog- ress in the metropolitan home expan- sion. New York is learning much every year in the way of home making and home secking. Every step of progres on Marhattan Island compels man to eeek some other place to dwell and to play, in order that the evolution of our wonderful little isiand shall not be cramped for room. Home progress as well aa any other kind moves along the lines of least resistance, The man who can @et to his place of business in the Jenst time commands so many more minutes fo! his business affairs, Retyrnin: more time to spend at ho quently more time to rest and recu- erate from nerve tension and business worrles, Hoe lives better, eats better, sleeps better, and evidently ta bound to live longer. TIVE COMMUNITY PLAN. Perhaps one of the notable advances in the home movement of the year has been the development of co-operative, or community, deat. For instance, astociations have been incorporated with property owners in certain com- Munities as stockholders for the purpose of maintaining their particular sections in exclusive, high-class condition; also for carrying en various community enterprises such as keeping competent and experienced head gardeners and caretakers, whose services free for landecape, flowers and vegetable gar- dening, the care of lawns, shrubs, frutt and shade trees, or te provide trained under gardeners and workmen at rea- sonable charges to all residents. The associations conduct community garages, boarding etattes, clubs and other de- arable utilities, This tends to eurreund each owner with an environment in harmony with the comforts and iuzurtes of neighboring costly private estates. @uch suburban home developments ‘were made possible when the door of the Grand Pennsylanie Station in Manhat- tan were opened to commuters, the atructure iteekf embodying the wighest achievements in the arc of transporte- UP FOR COMMUTERS. ‘The next step was the gubstitution of dectric traine éor the steam trains which formerty carried commuters. Electric service was opened ts Jamawa and Far Rockaway, bringing these towns within twenty to thirty minutes of the business districts of Manhattan, And now commuters of the North shore Gre looking forward to the elimination of the disagreeable change at Corona and Woodside by through service to Port Washington, which will be in op- eration by Feb, 2, 13. Considering the early operation ofthis through electric service, together with the outlet afforded for motor and vehicle ¢raMo over Queensboro Bridge the near completion of ¢he excellent syatem of asphalt roads throughout the main arteries of travel on the North Shore of Long Island as far as the city Mne, the dual subway system, whioh insures the running elevated trains from Manhattan as far east a0 Coro! with existing tramsit Unes Manhattan for a five cent fare, tl logical deduction je that New Yorke: must select the North Shore as a desi able dwelling place. ‘The bathing beaches around Baysld Port Washington and Great Neck superb.
