JOHN LEWIS CHILDS 



FLORAL PARK, L. I., N. Y. 



ELIZABETH, N. J. 



One of the most important matters to 

 oome before Elizabeth's board of alder- 

 men in several years, and which will have 

 a material effect on the growth of the 

 city if the request of the petitioners is 

 granted, was a communication recaived 

 by the aldermen June 15 from Hitch- 

 ings & Co., Jersey City, which wants to 

 remove its business to Elizabeth. The 

 company is engaged in the construc- 

 tion of greenhouses on an extensive 

 scale and was established in 1844. It 

 has now two plants on West Side ave- 

 nue, and Arlington avenue, Jersey City, 

 erected in 1880, but haa not the neces- 

 sary room there and wants to erect a big 

 plant in the northeastern section of Eliz- 

 abeth. 



In its petition to the aldermen the 

 company states that its capital is $200,- 

 000, with a cash surplus of $90,000. It 

 has acquired a large tract of unimproved 

 land in Elizabeth and asks that parts of 

 certain streets be vacated so that it can 

 put up its industry, which will consist 

 of a storehouse 200x60 feet, a wood 

 working plant two stories high, 205x67 

 feet, and an iron construction shop two 

 stories high, 160x100 feet; a boiler shop, 

 100x60 feet; a foundry, 200x70 feet, and 

 other buildings, 200x70 feet, including a 

 pattern shop and office building — all to 

 cost many thousands of dollars. The 

 company will employ more than 200 men, 

 all skilled mechanics, molders, machin- 

 ists, carpenters and glaziers. Its weekly 

 pay roll will be more than $4,000. The 

 ])resident of the company is E. W. 

 Hitchings, while Charles Armitage is sec- 

 retary and treasurer. The streets it 

 wants vacated are parts of Louisa, 

 Meadow, North avenue, Henry,, Spring, 

 Magnolia avenue and Meadow lane. The 

 matter was referred to the committee on 

 streets and parks, with instructions to 

 report in July. 



It was the consensus of opinion among 

 the aldermen that the coming of this in- 

 dustry to Elizabeth would cause quite 

 a boom to land values in that hereto- 

 fore undeveloped section of Elizabeth. 

 Most of the employes of the firm are 

 married and have families and as they 

 will have to live in this city to be near 

 their work their advent will mean a sub- 

 stantial addition to the city's population. 



Abe J. David, attorney for the com- 

 pany, briefly addressed the aldermen last 

 night on the importance of the enter- 

 prise to the city and requested speedy 

 action by the board in the matter. There 

 is hardly any doubt of the favorable re- 

 port on the subject at tlie aldermen's 

 next meeting.
