II is expected that work will he begun this week
on the construction a series of piers to ex-
tend along the North River from Bloomheld-st to
building ten freproof piers similar to those

mant until last weeks meeting of the Dock Board.
when resolution passed directing the engi-
neer-in-chief of the Department of Docks and Fer
ries. J. A. Bensel proceed with the execution of
the plans. The work will continue for at least five
years and cost from s70co0OO to $s0oo00o.

out and a new bulkhead made it will be necessary
TO change several streets and take possession of
considerable private land. The Assembly will be
asked give the city authority TO this land,

Market were constructed. The contract for the
dredging has not been let. Steps have been taken
for the removal of the tracks of the Metropolitan
Street Railway in Eleventh and Thirteenth aves.

in part
This is the largest single improvement ever
projected at any time by the city the water
front involving as il does the dredging and re-
moval of a considerable extent of solid land and a
part of Eleventh and Thirteenth aves., and a part
