Bridge Pier
To the Common Council of the City of st.
Paul:
GENTLEMEN-From recent examinations Of
the river find that the pier on the south side
of the island is likely to be endangered by
the next high water, to prevent which it will
be necessary to rip-rap along the bank and
bottom of the river about sixty feet out
from the south shore of the island. The esti-
mated cost of work necessary is $500.
In view of the rapid decay Of the ice l rec
ommend that authority be granted to make
the necessary protection.
Respectfully,
W. A. SoMERs, City Engineer.
March IS, 1884.
