way. Stable streets, each thirty-five feet wide, inter- 

 vene. The Boulevards are one hundred feet in width, 

 while the sidewalks are twenty feet in width. The 

 roadway is paved with the Belgian stone, and the side- 

 walks are flagged; on either side of the latter are 

 single rows of trees. The other peculiarities and ad« 

 vantages of the Parkway prevail, viz. : the courtyards 

 are, by legislative act, to be thirty feet from street line 

 to house front, making a total space from house to 

 house across the street of one hundred and sixty feet. 

 These magnificent Boulevards will be scarcely less 

 desirable, for the location of houses and homes, than 

 the Parkway itself. They will have all the density 

 and luxuriance of foliage, all the elegance of courtyard 

 and lawn display (and the lots on one side will enjoy 

 the same stable street privileges) of the grand " Way " 

 itself. 



PROTECTION AGAINST NUISANCE. 



It is a fact, as some of those who read this may have 

 sadly experienced, that some of the best of people, 

 who have exercised the utmost care in the selection of 

 residences, find themselves either hemmed in, environed, 

 or affected disastrously with nuisances, which are im- 

 movable, and ruinous to their comfort and welfare of 

 property. 



The supreme law of the State protects this whole 

 district from the possibility of any nuisance. Even the 

 mere semblance to an offense can be crushed and anni- 

 hilated, as may be seen in the acts of the Legislature, 

 contained in another part of this pamphlet.
