Our fathers who founded and laid out the city had no vision of what transportation might be in the future. They thought only of the rivers. so they had a little short street every little way. running east and west. to the North River and the East River. with few north and south avenues. no means of taking the people from the narrow part of the city out into the open spaces. It created a difficult problem. Immigration has bro~ight us tens of thousands and millions of people. Other millions have rushed to the city. So we have the difficult problem of housing to face and will have for years to come.
