DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF AREA, Despite fair age, this area, which is situated on ridge land that is high in the north, remains a desirable place in v hich to live. North of Stuyvesant Avenue it becomeo .even a shade better. The neighbo~hood is both well and conveniontlf located. Belleville Turnpike acts as a dividing line between this and the less desirable area to the north. The homes are not unattractive in design and are built slightly back from shaded streets. Although placed f~irly close together there is still a semi-s~burban atmosphere. About 10% of the housing structures are apartments plus a few 3 and 4 family and these conte.in 30% of the all dwelling units. The apartments rent for $18 - 22 per room F.-.nd offer minor competition to all save singles. Top value of the 3 & 4 family is $10,000 and this is purely nominal. Rents compare with those in doubles. 1 9. WCATION. __..JC••!'Jl..!'L_[Af'l\..n.filo.ntECURITY GRADE....?l,J!.... AREA NOJLs.... __ DAT!UL).~ H 53 • AREA DESCRIPTION Security· Map of 1. POPULATION, a.

DESCRIITION AND CHARACTER!STICS OF AREN Onco the c1ty1 s beat residential section and still a fairly desirable place in which to reside. The neighborhood is well and conveniently located on high ground sloping to the west. A bisecting traffic artery, Hudson Boulevard, and a gradual trend to apartments of the better class are its main drawbacks~ Both the singles and doubles are of mixed design and vory materially in size, some being quite large. They are set back from shaded streets but lots are too narrow. About 25% of the housing structures are apartments which contain 65% of all dwelling units. Room rent in these run from $15 to $25 and competition results particularly for units in doubles .• 9. I.Ofl,~ON._..Joue,,..J;J.t,,____ __ ...

DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTlCS OF AREA, This area is situated on fairly high ground which slopes to the south. Its location makes it convenient to places vf employment and to outside points but it suffers from odors from adjacent linoleum plant. It is too congested and not sufficiently new to be a r eally desirable place in which to live but should not decline much further. In this neighborhood is an intermingling of singles, doubl es ond an occasional 3 and 4 family all of which vary somewhat in size. · Thore is also a scattering of apartments in which rents run around $15 -17 per room and these offe r competition. In all 25% of the housing structures containing 50% of the dwelling units exceed 2 family in size. Three and four family have a nominal top mai-ket. value of $9,000 and in rents compare with doubles. The few n0groes are confined to the sm.a~l red area and there seems little danger of their spreading. 9. LOCATION-·•-··· H 54 Kearney SECURITY GRADJL.3,1! .. AREA NO...Q .•L ....

DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF AREA, This small and hoffiogeneous comm:uil.ity is located on c high plateau. It is old, congested and unattractive and from a residentiel standpoint, dontinues to decline. The afea, howev8r 1 still has on appeal to those 0mployed in the many small plants.scattered through.out. D?iellings vary from small singles to ttats mtd apartments- The best of th~ last mentioned are found along Hudson Boulevard east which is slightly mo re desire.ble. Houses along the principal north and south arteries contain st~)res on the ground floor. In addition to the types listed above there are a very few 3 ~.nd 4 frunily with a nominal top of ~7 1 000 units in vihich rents arc slightly under those in the 2 family. In the multi-family r ooms rent at $4 - 13 thereby cree,ting competition for the doubles. Stoves are the only means of heat in 50% of the dwelling units whereas 25% lack hot water and 20% hnve neither tubs or showers. The neighborhood suffers from expensive and poor transportntion to outside points. 9. LOCATION. ___ g..JJ:tt.enbe:re H 17 -······ SECURITY GRAOE._.3a!l ..c. AREA NO._.c._6._...

A sh~rp decline on each side, bowever, . separates it from the railroad yards and the industrial areas bolow. This neighborhood 1s of fair age, congested and has been on the decline for 'a number of years. Recent infiltration of negroes is helping it further on i~s downward path olthough a few streets remain above the ayerage, which is pa..r ticularly notie0able in "the western portion where there is an excell8nt sChool. Homes are built on narrow lots and in addition to tb,ose listed there are a few 1 s and 41 s with a nominal top value of $8,000 in which units rent tor slightly less than thes0 in the doubles. Along the principal north and south arterieS are a number of apartments, the better type being 6n Hudson Blulevard. All to.ld they account for 20% of t~ housing structures and contai~ 45% of the dwelling units. Rooms in them can be had for $10-15 and thus they afford comp&tition.

A particularly sharp decline separates it from the railroad yards to the east, Hudson Boulevard is its most desirable street. Both the singles and doubles vary in size and architecture but none is uverly attractive. There are also a few 31 s and 4•s whos.e nominal values and rents are similar t0 doubles...

The · neighborhood, though fairly.,old, is not too_ congosted Bl)d main avenues are quite wide. Negroes are concentrated 1n the small section .shown in red on the map "and there seems li"ttle danger of th,eir spreading. Along the .Tersey City line it is also less desirable. Dwellings are set back Slightly from. the street and display some pride of· Ownership, theugh not of an overly pleasing architecture. In addition to the types listed 5% are 3's and 1 s having a nominEµ top of $9000 in which units rent for a little less than: those in the doubles'.. A further 15~ are apartments. This group contains 45% of a_l l the dwelling ~itij 8.nd J;'Ooms in them rent for $12 - $17.50, but they afford little competitio.n.

The area is not overly congested being sparsely settled in spots. In all about 80% is improved but the character of the improvement is such as would appeal only to the poorest classes, For many of these, it is convenien t to places of employme nt. Housing facilitie s vary from small, frame and l arger singles to multi1 family structure s. There are e handful of 31 s and 4 s with a nominal top market of $8,000. Flats make up 10% of the habitatio ns and contain 25% of all dwelling units, They rent for !)4..-13 per room thus creating minor competiti on for units in the twof'am.ily. Nearly one third of all dwelling units are heated by stoves and quite a few lack tubs or showers. All are of fair age and in run down condition . There has been some condemna tion and demolitio n to provide for an approach to the Midtown Tunnel at tha point shown on the map.

DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF AREA: The ground is low and flat. The neighborhood ls old and has deteriorated into a slum area, Industry has crept in and today there are oome scattered manufacturing plants. Then, too, it suffers from odors emunating from the adjoining refin8ries. Its only redeeming features are convenience to places of employment and a good low rent apartment which was erected during recent years by Rockefeller interests. There has been sane institutional dElltlolition to reduce taxes and avoid vandalism which is very prevalent. DV1ellings include shacks and two story singles as well as conventional doubles. About 5% are 3 and 4 family and 50~ nre tenements. The 31 e and 4's have a nominal top value of $5,000 and their units rent for a little less than the doubles. The larger multi-family contain 70% of all dwelling units and their rooms rent for $2.50 - $6 but they do not afford much competition. Stoves a1·e the only form of heat in 95% of the dwoJ.ling units, b0% have neither hot water, tubs or showers and 10% have no private toilets. 9.
