Commend Boulevard Regulations Action of the Park Commission In eeklngte regulate the tpe of buildings 1 thnt flinll border Koeevclt Iteiilevarl In commended. Attention is cnlled te the fact that the Town Planning In stitute, of Londen line disapproved in creasing the heights of buildtngH in 1 Tarieus sections of thnt city. In that connection the bureau wivs : "The Town Planning Institute recog nized that in some locations incrensed height might be permitted without pub- ' lie dlsndventage. It is reported that , the committee of the Londen County Council, which Is charged with enforce- t ment of the Building Act. bus recom mended thnt the maximum height of buildings from the pavement te the under-celling of the topmost story be set at 80 feet, a slight relaxing of the former regulations. "It should be understood thnt some of the streets in Ccntial Londen nrc even narrower than these in Phlladel- phin's downtown district, nnd accord -lngly lower height limits must be set. However, we have found our Philadel phln streets te be much tee narrow te 1 meet existing traffic needs. Is I-anden Wisest? "Town planners in Londen viewed with alarm the proposal te Increase the building height te 120 or 150 feet. In I'hlndelphle, a maximum height limit of 150 feet for the central district sug gested by the Zoning Commission, wns strenuously opposed by certain interests is being much tee low. "Fer the time being these objections kmc prevailed, nnd the councilman!? Committee en City Planning nnd Zoning by a split vote passed 11 motion Febru ary 1. 11122. te eliminate the nren of the old city from the previsions of the pro posed zoning ordinance, nnd thus leave the central district without any height limit. This ntien, however, wns net referred back te the whole Council for approval. Hence the proposed zoning erdlnnnee, whicli is again in the hnnds nf the Zoning Commission, lias net been effiiinlly mutilate,!)..,, 'The eeuncllmhnie trtmmittec has very properly Instructed the Zoning Commis sion te held public henrings and sound out local sentiment before sending the erdinnnce back te Council. However, this task requires funds which the com mission does net have, and, although mning escaped the sword, It may new peiish from lack of nourishment. Se far Council has shown no disposition te make the necessary appropriation. One ordinance introduced by n mem ber of Council haR been disapproved, while a second, prepared by the Zoning Commission, nppear te be sleeping peacefully in the Fjnnnoe Committee."
