to build a culvert over it. The latter plan
has proven of late years to be the best.
Formerly it would have cost over IS, 600 Wv.
but today 1t would not cost over $3.50 600.
All the beauty along the creek has been
destroyed by the refuse thrown there and
there is no solution except to solve the
question by building culvert as stated:
We can thus-avoid six or eight bridges and
advance the assessable property Of
Georgetown over 80 per cent, and l hope
that by the next session of Congress the
citizens associations Of the city will be
ready to join us of the Georgetown assoca-
ton in asking for this legislation. The
improvement of Rock creek has been agi-
tated for many years. Steps were taken TO
start the improvements In the year 1857.
They were then postponed to start at the
present conduit Mr.. Decide then cited the
difficulties that had been encountered year
by year to defeat the realization OF the pro-
ject and stated that as yet no practical
solution except the building of tunnel and
the filling in of the creek had been reached.
One Of the principal obstacles was the
great cost of the project. All the beauty
of the place has been marred, and l urge
that the associations do all in their power
that the unsightly conditions be remedied
as soon as possible. All the material which
would come out of the creek could be USED
in the building of the arch. The cost might
seem large, but not so when all the plans
were accomplished on modern engineering
construction. AS to the benefits 1t would
avoid the necessity for rebuilding and main-
tanning the numerous UTIQseS over TIC
creek and the several streets from 23d to
9th inclusive be converted into contin-
uous thoroughfare. The open treatment
would be a good thing, but rather imprac-
ticable When the delta of the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal is reached. corporate terri
tory is invaded. so this plan would be UNI
WISE and the logical way is to carry out
the improvement as embodied In the Cow
herd bill. The speaker then closed with
neat tribute to Representative William s.
Ccwherd of Missouri, who, he said. was
one of the most public spirited men and
one Of the best friends the District Of Co
lumbia ever had in the legislative halls of
this country. Had he met the same en-
enlargement in the senate. said Mr.. Decide,
as in the house, there would be different
story to tell as to Rock creek"
Judge Bundy spoke of the interest the
Columbia Heights Association felt for the
adoption Of the most modern plans for the
Rock creek project and wanted to see the
barrier separating Washington from
Georgetown removed at the earliest posi-
BILE moment In closing. he extended the
thanks of the association to Col. Biddle
and Mr.. Decide for their attendance at the
meeting. which, upon motion. was declared
to be adjourned.
