Very noteworthy also is the method of ascertaining the value of the "unit foot." "A unit foot is a frontage of ground one foot wide and 100 feet deep, located in the central section of a block at a dis- tance from any street corner or other influence that migh...t afiPect its value, other than which it obtains by reason of access to the life and business of the city through its own frontage." ^ To appraise the unit, persons with a knowl- edge of urban conditions, and of realty values are called in.

From this most valuable street other streets of less value will be compared, a well-defined opin- ion being present that the property on the less valuable street is less valuable just in proportion as the street is less valuable, and the comparison will reach out from the cen- ter or best portion and embrace the entire city.
