The corner lots that flank Nanton Blvd. don't have a consistent size, and range between widths of 83' - 207'. I would think that if there were any active legal planning policies, regulations, or caveats upholding City Beautiful principles as they applied to the 1911 Tuxedo Park subdivision, either:
- the City wouldn't have recommended approval in the first place,
- one of the lawyers in the neighbourhood would have brought them to light by now.
