Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Model Housing Law Since the Model Housing Law was published five years ago, much has happened in America in the world of housing. A number of states and cities have passed housing legislation based upon the Model Housing Law. The experience of these states and communities in adapting the Model Housing Law to their local needs and conditions, has developed as it naturally would some weak spots and difficulties in the Model Law. For this reason nit is believed that a new edition of this book is necessary, the first edition having been exhausted for over a year. When the Model Housing Law was published in 1914 it was a pioneer effort. There were practically no housing laws of any kind in the country. There were only tenement house laws and those based on New York City´s experience. New York City is absolutely sui generis. The conditions which prevail there do not prevail generally throughout the United States, and laws that are suited to the peculiar conditions that exist in New York City are quite unsuitable fir most of our American cities. The types dwellings which exist throughout the country are not the tall tenement house of New York but very different types. This new edition, therefore, represents not only the experience of all the states and cities in the country which have enacted housing laws since 1914, but also the experience as well of the author in his capacity as Secretary of the National Housing Association in aiding in the drafting of such laws, in adapting them to local conditions and in meeting the difficulties that have arisen. The coming into almost universal use of the automobile has brought with it very difficult problems radically affecting property subdivision and building construction. It has brought man of the difficulties that have been encountered in attempting to apply the Model Housing Law in different states and cities.
