ECONOMY OF SPACE.
A Great Power Generating Station Which
Covers but Little Ground.

Covers but Little Ground.
Probably no other kinds of power
plants afford better illustrations Of the
tendency to concentration than some of
the modern splendidly equipped electric
stations in large cities, where ground
area has closely approached the maxi
mum in value, and i'll which, therefore,
economic considerations have dictated
the putting Of as much generating ap-
paratus into as little space as human
ingenuity would permit, with due re-
gard to satisfactory performance. In
some of these stations vertical engines
and boilers in large units have been
installed to the entire exclusion of hori-
zontal designs, and in others, again, the
saving in ground space thus secured has
been still further augmented by setting
engines and boilers in tiers, one above
the other, giving ratio of horsepower
per square foot Of ground area which a
decade ago would have been thought
quite beyond the limits of possibility.
In probably no station in the world
has this concentration been carried out
to greater degree, or to as great one
even, as in that of the Edison Electric
Illuminating company in Duane street,
in the city of New York. The ground
covered by this measures 200 by "A feet,
and within this area provision has been
made for nine 1850 horsepower en-.
gines, two of 1880 horsepower each
and three of 600 horsepower, giving a
total of very nearly 1000 horsepower,
with corresponding boiler plant, or
only little less than two horsepower
per square foot. 1t would seem, indeed,
as though economy in space could not
we'll be carried much farther. r.-Cassier's
