Attractive Colony In West Hempstead
One of the most active of the home-buying sections is Kensington Gardens in West Hempstead developed by William Wade, Inc., of Jamaica. The homes are at Ardsley Road and Nassau Boulevard, adjoining Garden City. The prosperous village of Hempstead, terminus of the Hempstead division of the Long Island Railroad, is convenient to the Wade colony, the Meadowbrook Hunt Club, where golf in America was first played, and the Curtiss Flying Field, Mitchel Field, the United States Flying Field, churches of all denominations, schools and theaters.
During the past week several of the completed homes in the Wade colony were purchased by Brooklyn families and a number of the houses under way have been contracted for, according to the builders. The houses are of the English Tudor type of attractive design on plots 50 by 100 and selling at $10,350 on convenient terms. One of the houses fully furnished is used as a model for exhibition purposes.
