T G Dangar, Sydney. The Mayor deserves thanks for the manner in which he is eradicating the City Rookeries, but the Sydney Building Act is imperfect, and the Corporation should have more powers to supervise buildings being erected. Speculators are able to build greater rookeries of any size and material, throughout the city, as long as the walls are a certain thickness. He has leased his vacant land at Chippendale for 21 years and the character of the buildings that are being built are unsatisfactory and will be no good for anyone at the expiration of the lease. There is a notation on the letter that his problem is due to not having a clause in the lease stipulating the class of building on the land.LanguageEnglish (eng)Digitised recordYes
