T. Carter and his brother E .J. in 1925 when they were finally able to convince the Brickell family to sell them the 35 acres of\u00a0 mostly virgin forest just outside the walled growing fields of<strong> Viscaya<\/strong> which became <strong>Bay Heights<\/strong>. After the land was cleared the plot was subdivided into 177 lots, mostly 50 feet wide. Roads and sidewalks were built, coconut palms and shrubbery planted, water lines and underground utilities were laid out throught the center of each street. These impressive improvements added more than $1000 the original cost of each lot!<\/p>\n<p>Over half of the lots were sold in 1925 at the then prevailing boom prices, practically all of which were voluntarily deeded back to the company formed by the brothers, Carter Realty Company. In 1938 the area was re-subdivided into 138 larger lots, 70 foot frontages being the minimum.<\/p>\n<p>It is a tribute to E. J. Carter that he held to his vision of Natoma Manors as a homesite for quality homes, and didn\u2019t encumber it with liens or mortgages during the years he held onto it intact, even at considerable personal financial sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>I have an article from the Miami Daily News dated December 17, 1938 in front of me now. It shows a picture of 1601 Tigertail Avenue, and begins by stating that the home, built for Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Etzel will be completed by Christmas. It was designed by architect Lloyd F. Vann and constructed by Deigaard Preston. \u201c\u00a0The cost of construction is approximately $16,000\u2033 the article states.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_125\" style=\"width: 601px;height: 473px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/planetmiamirealestate.com\/files\/2010\/02\/1601-Tigertail-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"1601 Tigertail Avenue Today.\" width=\"600\" height=\"475\" \/> 1601 Tigertail Avenue Today.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p>To put that into perspective, I sold the home for the second owners in 2003 for $720,000!\u00a0To the right is a picture of the home\u00a0today.
