BOARD TO MAP NEW PLAN FOR CHILD MUSEUM

Meeting Called as Zoning Chiefs Ban Building on - Washington Blvd.

Fred Bates Johnson, member of |

the Children's Museum board, said today that a meeting would be held soon to consider future plans for a building site. - 5

The action is to follow the ad-

.verse decision of the Zoning Board |} preventing use of a proposed site ||

on Washington Blvd. The Zdning Board yesterday

granted, by a vote of 8 to 2, the pe-,

tition of 64 property owners hetween 34th and 38th Sts. on Washington Blvd. against use of the property at 3619-37 Washington Blvd. for the museum. _ The museum's executives were planning a $75,000 building on that ground, donated recently by William Rockwood. Site Is Questioned At the hearing, Mr. Johnson, representing the museum, don’t believe there is any question in the mind of the remonstrators concerning the cultural benefits of the museum. The single point in question before the board is whether the museum should be located at this spot. The zoning laws provide general rules to be followed and rules governing variance from the laws. “One of the questions is whether the museum would hurt property values. We have no grudge against these fine citizens whe have come | before the Board. We believe, on | the contrary, that the would not be detrimental to values | but a distinct asset.” Mr. Johnson presented the architect’s picture of the proposed struc- |

ture and cited museums in other

cities which are located in the best | residential districts. Taylor E. Groninger opened arguments for the petitioners, and sai “Property owners have bought there | because of the residential value of | the property. will attract children and busses to | the neighborhood will reduce its value 25 to 35 per cent. We are] opposed, not to the institution, but! to the location and would like to suggest that it be more centrally | located.” Cites Depreciation William F. Fox Jr. the adjoining property. said that “busses will pass by my sun porch .and practically come into my back Yard. I called five real estate men and asked them if it ‘would depreciate the value of the surrounding neighborhood and four of them answered in the affirmative.” Emsley W. Johnson said that a Year ago, Charles Lynn: deeded his property in the neighborhood lto the Old Ladies’ Home, whereupon he called George Denny, attorney, who replied emphatically that they would not build there but sell the property and buy another site.
