To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

59, p. 310. Another of the many examples which might be given is on the other side of the continent, at San Francisco, where the suburban development illustrated by Fig. 60 (p. 314) in the chapter on Garden Cities includes a number of ornamental details which are well designed and executed (PL 68, p. 252), and here also are the simple little lamp standards covered with flowering vines. (Shown in PL 6 1 , p. 243 .) Some of the most successful attempts to introduce attractive street details are t...o be found in private streets or places — that is, short streets or courts not recognized by or included in the city plan and over which the developer, and after him the purchasers of the plots, retain and exercise entire control, maintaining at their own expense the roadway pavements, sidewalks, planting, etc. St. Louis is conspicuous for these places, some modest and others quite pretentious. Several views showing their ar- rangement are illustrated (Pis. 69 and 70, pp. 252 and 254).
The nature of the restrictions imposed by covenants between the developers and purchasers of plots are indicated by the Digitized by VjOOQIC PLATE 62 The lighting of Fifth avenue and the high office buildings of lower Man- hattan, New York.
