A SAVING or A
MILLION ON A PUBLIC IMPROVE-
MENT.—The necessity of opening out an improved
line of thoroughfare from Oxford-street to Shoreditch, and
so avoiding the dangers and delays of a journey through
the crowded streets of the City has long been perceived ;
and among the plans for public improvements of Mr. Mar-
rabic, the late superintending architect to the Metropolitan
street from Oxford-street, by way of Hart-street, Liquor-
13d ret, Clerkenwell-green, and St. John's-square, to
)
Luke's, and on to the Eastern Counties
Railway Station at Shoreditch; but the cost, estimated at
£1,099,580 nett, h
Old-rsd.tsrt oef `Yorks, was one to make an improved and direct
ee. t S t
has hitherto, and will continue to prevent
its being carried out. Just at the present time a most
favourable opportunity offers itself for commencing the im-
provement of another line of thoroughfare in the same direc-
tion,ing out of GraY's-inn-road to Mount-pleasant, and thence
butat an immense saving of money. Elm-street ,lead-
to Exmouth-street, Clerkenwell, is a narrow-street in which
two vehicles can scarcely pass, and on the greater part of
the foot-pavement it is impossible for two pedestrians to pass
without one of them having to step on the carriageway to
the danger of life the traffic from omnibuses, heavy wag.
goes, cabs,
and other vehicles being so great. The south
side of this street is scoarated from a narrow court by 11
houses. At the present time six out of these 11 houses,
which are freehold, are announced for sale by public auc-
tion, and as their annual rental amounts to £260 their cost
may be pretty nearly estimated. The removal of these six
houses, and of the remaining five, would make a tine wide
thoroughfare, very-
convenient for the great traffic passing
through it, but it might also form the commencement of
an improved line of thoroughfare between the east and west
ends of the metropolis, as to the eastward there is already a
direct line of streets leading from it to the City-road,and to
the westward. It would require but the removal of a
dozen houses or so, t 9 extend Little James-street to East-
street, and East-street to Great Russell-street, leading to
the corner of Tottenham-court•road and Oxford-street,and
the carrying out of this improvement, instead of the first-
mentioned, would effect a saving of upwards of £1,000,000.
