From the outset aesthetics - open space and landscaping -were a careful consideration. It was set forth that deeds of lots were to contain a condition that no buildings could be erected upon an avenue within 17' of the lot line, ensuring 100' between buildings across the street from each other. Every home was a corner residence.
Numerous restrictions and safeguards were thus established to ensure plenty of elbow room. Green trees and park land were also a priority. Some 20000 trees set in double rows were planted to "give the whole tract the appearance of a great park." - NPS, Multiple Property Documentation Form
