Excerpt from Homes for Workmen: A Presentation of Leading Examples of Industrial Community Development
Size OF tract. In order to provide for a complete local community giving the necessary streets, open spaces, stores and shops, public building sites, amusements and the other fea tures of neighborhood life; also to take care of the cost of the indispensable utilities, such as water supply, sewage disposal, etc., the tract should be usually not less than one hundred acres. Two hundred acres is even better. Fifty acres should be considered a minimum for a complete development. In some cases a thou sand acres would not be too much.
Boundaries. The boundaries in the case of a tract with a strongly marked character should usually follow the topographical features. Um less streams or water courses are wide, both sides should be included. So also with main streets. If they are located on the boundary of the property, the development should include both sides of the streets and the boundary of the tract run to the back line of the surrounding lots.
