A VISION OF THE FUTURE. HAYWARDS’ GARDEN SUBURB. There are to be great happening* shortly at Haywards, and tn the ne future improvements " rlll taK ;® pla -* that will give Haywards its place in 11 FoT many years Haywards has looked upon by the public of Wdlto? ton as being an isolated, far-distant suburb, difficult of access, and seldom Vl One d 'reason for this is its very poor road communication. The only of access —except by rail—is by the narrow.' tortuous, and really dangerous Havwarfs Road, on the west side of the railway line, hugging the InHs and contouring around with many sharp turns, quite unsuited for The road was planned in the early davs to meet the needs of the few settlers along its route, and was never >ntended for motor traffic. Accidents have repeatedly taken place during.the nast few years, and to-day, owing to the develonment of traffic,. through motorists taking the round trip up the West Coast mam road as far as Pahau tanui, and then crossing by the Pahau taiiui Road to Haywards and from there on through Lower Hutt back to Wellington—the present road is becom inc increasingly dangerous. What fe required, and will no £oubt ultimatelv become part of the scheme now being evolved for the development of the vallev generally, bv bituminising the main road to the Wairarapa, and bv running a new line of railway up the east side of'the vallev. will be the construction of a bridge at Haywards t., connect the main Wairarapa road with the main Palmerston road at p.-hautanni. ..... , The absence of this bridge has meant that Havwards been simply a- sul de sac. and settlement hindered. All this will now be changed Under the progressive policy that is being carried out for the development of the vallev as Wellington’s largest garden suburb Havwards will present umoue -’fractions At no other centre in the vallev does there exist such a large amount of totally undeveloped land, verv suitable for bivldino- amidst unique surronndin <T s, or that will lend itself so admirably to the laving out of a new suburb on the most approved methods of town-planning. Beautiful Sites for Ideal Homes. Within a radius of If miles of the present Havwards railway station there are several thousand acres, which would be more than sufficient for the settlement of a new suburb as large as Lower Hutt. Some of the land is. of the richest description, and level in character. There are also lovely slopes and lullsides. and elevated plateaus, so that the tastes of all can be met. For 40 vears the original owner, Air. Harvard, would never part with an inch of In’s property; and to-day the whole of Havward’s Alanor Park, comprising over 600 acres, is intact, i«ad not a single building site has been sola. The greatest intbrest has been created bv the announcement that at last this unique property is to be. divided up and sold bv public auction. As everything, including stock, implements, buildings, as well as land, have to be sold, the realising of these various assets will have to be carried over several davs. The sale of stock will take place' on Friday. November 27. The Alanor-House, with adjoining sections and a number of sections at Stokes Valley, will be offered on the 28th: and a week later (December 5) the first sale of the Alanor Park garden suburb will take place on the ground* at 3 o’clock. Exhibition of Beautiful Pictures. An interesting exhibition at the old Tourist Bureau Offices, corner of Featherston Street, opposite the G.P.0., is now on view, comprising plans and pictures, beautiful photographs of the Alanor Park Estate, together with some verv fine roses and specimens of shrubs now growing on «-ome of the lets to. be offered for sale. The i iblic are invited to ston and study the exhibition, which is well worth close attention. Further particulars of the Havwards sale will be published in a few davs,—Advt. •
