Because the text is so small at the bottom, I will enlarge it for you below:
How You May Live and Travel in the City of 1950
Future city streets, says Mr. Corbett, will be in four levels: The top level for pedestrians; the next lower level for slow motor traffic; the next for fast motor traffic, and the lowest for electric trains. Great blocks of terraced skyscrapers half a mile high will house offices, schools, homes, and playgrounds in successive levels, while the roofs will be aircraft landing-fields, according to the architect's plan.
It's interesting to see how people speculated the future would be, in this case in 25 years, and how the world actually turned out. I wonder if people will laugh about our future speculations in 60 years as well.
