To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(1) It proposed to take the long-overdue step of ex- panding the Tenement House Law to cover all dwell- ings, including one and two-family houses and hotels.
(2) It coined the new term "Dwelling Law" to dis- tinguish the proposed enactment from the New York State Housing Law of 1926, which was of the construc- tive character commonly connoted by the term "Hous- ing Law" in Europe. The previous monopoly of the term in the United States by restrictive codes such as those of Michigan and Iowa had ...already proved con- fusing.
(3) It classified building lots according to assessed valuation in 1927, putting the dividing line at $2 per square foot. The idea was to preserve the land not yet ruined by intensive building for a lower and more open type of construction insuring wholesome homes, some- what after the manner of a zoning ordinance. Nearly all of Manhattan, 11% of Brooklyn, 7% of the Bronx and very small portions of Queens and Richmond fell in the high value category for which only intensive building was considered possible.
