INDUSTRIAL DWELLINGS, WENTWORTH STREET, WHITECHAPEL, E. These dwellings, now in course of erection from designs by Mr. E. Hoole, form parts of the Goulston-street and Flower and Dean street scheme of the Metropolitan Board of Works. Wentworth-street has been widened, and the dwellings replace the old common lodging- houses which formerly stood on the site. One hundred and thirty rooms are provided in tene- ments of three, two and one rooms, and are approached by stone staircases, which also lead to the flat roofs, and communicate on each floor with the offices. Laundries are constructed on the flat roofs, which serve as drying-grounds. Each living-room is fitted up with sideboard, coal-locker, and cooking-range, and has at hand a dust-shoot and pail service. An attempt has been made to avoid the barrack-like appearance too often characteristic of this class of dwell- ing, as it is found that the rooms let more readily when a more cheerful appearance is given to the exteriors. Red bricks have been used for facing, and Lascelles's slabs for the balustrades to balconies; the roofs, where not flat, being covered with red tiles. The works are being executed by Messrs. Williams & Son, builders, of Thornhill-square, Islington, N.
