After slums I take again the cute house and I repeat it a few times more and then (after a moorish gas station) start the city blocks, brownstone, shops etc. till I enter in the center of the city and make the slums of the center (6th avenue like) with movie houses, drugstore cut-rate, a burlesque, italian restaurants and on the upper floors dancing schools, schools of languages, of beauty, of success, dentist, chiropodists, tree surgeons [[strikethrough]] etc [[/strikethrough]] ,  passport photo, tatoo etc. Going on I'll make the skyscraper with a fancy store on street level and about 500 floors of offices (I'll exagerate the height and I'll shape the building like a cathedral [[image]] somehow with windows evenly distributed all over the place on timpano or cupola. Here I might make a center of the city with a monument of the World War I, the post office (with socialist murals etc. I don't know how I'll end it, probably with rich suburbs where I'll section the houses to show what's in it. There are many other things that I forgot to describe to you but I'll bring you photostats. 

I'm sorry it took the whole letter to write you about this (but as you see I'm excited.) I'll write you more tonight. Now it's 12 o'clock, I wait for Edgar Kaufman to have lunch with and talk some technicality of Detroit (He's part of the organization)

Goodbye dear, I send you my whole love and I wish you all the good. Don't be sad, I'll see you soon.
