STRIP PlilliES
All Hi Viiliiiili
Norwalk City Council Said to
Have lied an Offer of $1,500
for Property Since Mr. Lock-
wood Began Plans for His
New Building
That little strip of land in Wall
street known as Klondike Park is
causing the Norwalk City Council con-
siderable trouble. The. board has now
come to the conclusion that it made
a big mistake in offering to lease the
property to Monica Deli‘. Lockwood at
so small a figure. One of the original
propositions made by the Council was
that Mr. Lockwood pay the city 810
per year for 25 years with the. privi-
lege of renewing the least- for an ad
ditlonal fifty years at $15 per year.
Mr, Lockwood hesitated about taking
this matter up and the Council soon
began experiencing a change of heart
about. the lease. so that. last Monday
night when Mr. Lockwood, through
his attorney. Judge Edward M. flock-
wood, presented a recent acceptance
of the proposition, it was voted mere-
ly refer the matter back to the com-
mittee for further consideration.
As is well-known. Mr. Lockwood has
signified his intention of erecting a
modern brick business building on his
property adjoining the city strip and
told the Council some time ago that.
the manner he finished up the west
wall Would depend greatly on what.
is done about the Klondike Park prop-
erty. He does not intend to build on
the latter. but by leasing it he could
prevent the placing of any kind of a
structure on it anti therefore the light
for his building would not be inter-
fered with front that side.
It is stated that since the Council
has been debating the matter of form
ing the property over to Mr. I.ock~
wood for a consideration. there have
been a number of offers to the city
for the use of'lt.
When asked this morning if he
would crct‘t his building should the
floods" refuse to lease Klondike Park
to him, Mr. Lockwood said that be
was not prepared to reply definitely.
Judge Edward M. Lockwood was of
the opinion that the Council's step
ill offering the property to Mr. [400k-
wood at specified figure is binding
and Intimates the legal entanglements
that may cnsuo.
(in the other hand. a member of the
t‘ouncil said the other day that it
was true that the Council had made
Mr. lAlt-kwood tin-offer, but It was a
question how long the offer would
stand. Mr. Lockwtmd gave no hint.
he said, until some time later. that
he would accept it. The city father
did not think that it. could be con‘
siilcrcd that the offer was to stand
opcn permanently.
It. was slated today that 81,500 has
been offered the city for the property
since the negotiations were begun With
Mr. Lockwood.
