Superblock Design 
 
The central idea was to cluster the houses together into superblocks, where the fronts of the houses were off a dead-end street. The backs were joined together by footpaths leading to a central green area. This was an adaptation of ideas at Letchworth, Herts in England.

Hello. I really like your picture of the super block design. I live in the suburbs of NJ. I loved knowing that they got it from England!

Thanks.

Sincerely,
