FORT WASHINGTON ROADWAY.
It Will Ascend the Hill on Four Per
Cent Grade.

The new roadway in process of construc-
ton on the government reservation at Fort
Washington, Md, from the wharf to the
top of the high hill on which the quarters
for the troops are situated is now rapidly
approaching completion. Instead of going
straight over the top of the hill, as the
old road did, the new one winds around the
base of the hill toward Swan creek, and is
a gradual rise on per cent grade. The
grade of the old road was one of IA per
cent. 1t was intended to close up the old
roadway when the new one was completed
and to cover it with grass. in order to pre-
sent pleasing appearance from the river.
On examination 1t was found, however.
that the old deed transferring the fort prop
erty to the United States, early in the last
century contains a provision that this road
shall be kept open, and that the country
people shall have free access over it to the
wharf. AS the new road will be so much
smoother and better though a little longer,
the old road will not be much used. The
new roadway is being built at a cost of
81, 600.
