Three years ago the Alcatraz Paving
company laid vitrifed brick pave
ment on Hyde Park avenue. from La
fayette street to Division street. The
bricks were laid ON a sand base and
the pave was guaranteed for five years.
Three years has elapsed, and the
street from Lafayette to jackson is
sight to behold Commencing with the
Merrifeld lot on the left-hand side,
and extending to Price street, the
bricks have sunk half the width of the
street. At the intersection of Price
street there is hole in the pavement
some ten feet long and two feet wide,
with a depth of ten to fourteen inches,
and at this point in the middle of the
street is basin filled with mud and
water, some eighteen inches in diam
cter and twenty inches deep. If a
wheelman or horse We're to strike the
hole just right, the consequences would
indeed be serious, as wheelman might
be thrown from his wheel and killed,
or horse break leg.
From Price street to the Franklin
engine barn the bricks are also sunk,
and in front of the barn the whole
pavement is in a most deplorable con-
dition. Several times while the pave
1nent was in course of construction
heavy rain storms occurred and the
water washed the sand from beneath
the bricks and honeycombed the whole
thing along the sides. Again, after the
pave was completed, the company.
mixed weak cement and slushed IL
over the bricks to fill UP the spaces
between bricks. but instead of sinking
in. the cement merely formed a crust
on top. which travel soon wore off. with
the result that water sinks in all the
Grevices.
