Map excerpted from\u00a0City of East Lansing Use Districts<\/a>, 1926. Note the\u00a0interurban<\/a>\u00a0right-of-way along North Street (now Burcham Drive), in its last years of service.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A large section of the Chittenden farm with the\u00a0Bailey school<\/a>\u00a0lot in its southwest corner. Like\u00a0Ardson Heights<\/a>, which had the same designer,\u00a0Strathmore avoided the rigid cardinal-point layout of much of the city and features curving, tree-lined streets. It was platted in four sections between 1925 and 1947, a surprising delay given that the land was incorporated within the original city limits when it was\u00a0chartered in 1907<\/a>. Only the portion from Orchard Street west had been platted at the time of the map seen here; when the eastern portions were later added several of the streets (including Beech, Linden, Chittenden, and Kedzie) were reconfigured from this design.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The north-south stretch of Collingwood Drive (named for\u00a0C. B. Collingwood<\/a>) was originally called Haslett Street, the name given by the\u00a0Fairview<\/a>\u00a0plat. It was changed in 1971, after East Lansing had expanded enough toward the northeast to encompass Haslett Road. As Collingwood crosses Snyder it transitions from north-south to its original east-west street; there the house numbers were fudged somewhat to prevent a gap in the numbering between 600 N. Collingwood and 700 E. Collingwood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
