Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Booming of Acre Hill: And Other Reminiscences of Urban and Suburban Life Acre Hill ten years ago was as void of houses as the primeval forest. Indeed, in many ways it suggested the primeval forest. Then the Acre Hill Land Improvement Company sprang up in a night, and before the bewildered owners of its lovely solitudes and restful glades, who had been paying taxes on their property for many years, quite grasped the situation they found that they had sold out, and that their old-time paradise was as surely lost to them as was Eden to Adam and Eve. To-day Acre Hill is gridironed with macadamized streets that are lined with houses of an architecture of various degrees of badness.
