In the inspectors annual report II will
be shown that the amount SO far ex-
pended on municipal buildings has
greatly exceeded that Of 1893. owing to the
numerous additions and alterations and
new buildings carried on by the police
and fire departments.
The new building laws have added
greatly to the efficiency of the building
operations, and everybody comedies them
TO be Just what was needed.
The num5e OF permits issued for new
dwellings all over the city exceeds any
thing before heard OF in the history OF
Providence, and as appears above, the
class OF houses erected has been OF the
highest standard.
The correct figures OF the estimated cost
of the buildings erected or altered during
the year 1894 cannot, OF course, be
stated until the Inspector &
report is made up, but it appears that OF
the most expensive buildings over 900
was expended on brick and nearly 100000
on frame structures alone.
