WHERE CENSOR IS NEEDED

Successful Outcome of Allotment Development Depends Largely on Intelligent Forethought The. successful outcome of an allotment development as an asset to a city depends largely upon the type of neighborhood established by the real 4 tor In selling his property. It is true, however, that some properties are assured .of ultimate individuality before development on account of their natural location. The average allotment, however, is dependent on the method of sale of separate lots and the restrictions imposed upon them, which have an important bearing on the ultimate upbuilding. But the character of a neighborhood is far from assured because of imposed restrictions as to price of house to be erected, as is shown in numerous cases about Cleveland. Perhaps the most apparent reason for a development not proving what was originally intended are, first, that the building operations (to set the pace, so to speak) were not carried on by the developer to show what was expected, and, second, the censoring of building plans.—Cleveland Leader.
