Contractor John Nolan has work on
the Improvement of Sixth street we'll I'M
der way. Mr.. Nolan has been doing ex-
cellent work for the city under the SUI
pervision of the new Street and Water
Board.
One of the many things which would
disgust a prospective buyer of property
in Jersey City is the filthy and disgrace
full condition of Montgomery street. 1t
is the principal thoroughfare to- the
Heights, and is travelled by more people
city. From Brunswick street the pave
ment ceases, between the car tracks, and
then begins a dirt road. The dust is
half a foot deep, and there are ruts in it
which render trucking dangerous, and
make it impossible for a person in a
carriage to drive over it in safety at a
faster gait than a walk. As each trolley
car strikes the dirt road passengers are
bewildered with the dust. It is often
times SO thick that it chokes one If the
city officials imagine that visitors will be
riding through one of it's main thorough
fares and FINDING it in such a terrible
condition they are mistaken.
Magnolia avenue requires attention.
Unless the city officials take some action
now, they will experience the same
trouble that htey are now having with
nue.. On the west side of Magnolia ave
nue., taking the car tracks as a divid-
ing line, hte grade is fully we feet
higher h a on the south side. On the
4iS "a ny ~
built at grade. On the opposite side,
however, some of the owners have built
high easements, so as to ave their floors
OH a grade with the avenue on the north
side, while still others have built at the
present grade of their end of the ave-
nue.. The result is hat there are houses
does much toward destroying the beau
ty of the street. The city would confer
a favor on the property owners by es-
tablishing a grade.

over Summit avenue. New planks are be
ing laid in the passage ways and it is
understood that the company proposes
laying new extra thick planks in the
