t eet, Wilmette being approximately 6.47 acres, which, at 72 families to the acre, would ac;commodate 466 families. "Central Winnetka district-584,141 sq.are feet, being approximately 13.4 acres, which at 72 families to the acre, would accommodate 965 families. "Total 1JI1/ families. "These fwures include everything in the district zoned commercial with the exception of the land occupied by the Administration building, that which is owned by the Chicago North Shore, Milwaukee Electric railroad, lying both north and south of Elm street, the land occupied by the Iredale storage warehouse on Center street, which is a four-story building. and the land owned and occupied by the Standard Oil Co., at the northeast corner of Tower road and Linden avenue. "After computing the business as above I have gone over the various busin~ss districts, and in my opinion there are now included in the business area, as computed above, quite a number of buildings less than three stories high, most of them being two stories, which will remain as they arp for a great many years, as they are high class buildings, too good to be wrecked, and to which it would not be practical to add a third story. "I find that the land occupied by these two-story buildings of a more or less permanent character, has a total area in the Hubbard Woods distnct of 80,000 square feet, or about 1.84 acres. And in the Central Winnetka district, an area of 98,425 square feet, or about 2.25 acres. · There are ·no two-story buildings in the Indian Hill district. Commercial Statiatica "Deducting these areas from the above figures, I find . the following regarding "C" commercial : "Hubbard Woods-6.16 acres, to accommodate 444 families. "Indian Hill-6.47 acres, to accommodate 466 families. "Central Winnetka district-11.15 acres, to accommodate ~ families. "Making a total in the three districts of 1,713 families. This includes the three-story buildings now erected and being erected. "I find that in the entire village there is just a trifle Jess than five acres zoned industrial. In my opinion none of this will be improved with buildings containing apartments, as there is such a demand for coal and material yards, oil stations and other uses which would make the property so undesirable for residence purposes that there will probably be no residence development." A further interesting compilation of statistics in the form of a summary of a portion of the foregoing is shown in the statement, that if all the "C" commercial area was developed with three-story buildings, under the present regulation of 72 families per acre, with an average of two persons to the family occupying apartments, the minimum number ~f persons living in apartments would be only 3426. This includes the l}nildings now underway. Also, that in the residential section in both the "A" and "B" districts o~ the basis of six families to the ~ere and with the average of five persons to the family, there would be a total of 8486 families and a total of 42 430 people. ' The ratio . of people residing· in apartments at was shown, would be only seven and one-half percent, as compared to ninety-two and one-half percent living in residence properties. In ~dditi~n to being colorful and beautiful, tile walls arid floors in the home have the supreme quality of absolute desirability.
