COURTHOUSE SITE.
Brooklyn architects impatient
for Decision.

Brooklyn architects are greatly eXer-
cised over the delay in choosing a site for
the new Supreme Court house in that bor-
ough. Woodruff Leeming. of No. 20
Broad street. secretary Of the Brooklyn
chapter Of the American Institute of
Architects. said yesterday:
The Judges seem To find great difficulty
in reaching a decision. The reason for
this is easy 10 find. az preparations have
never been made by the city authorities
for the necessary enlargement and hous-
ing of the increased force required in
handling our city's business. Every Euro
pean city has made preparations for this
In times past. Every Western city in our
country is now making such preparations.
Brooklyn should Immediately appoint a
commission to make such preparations
and have a comprehensive plan which will
allow for growth for many years 10 come.
Mayor Mcclellan tried to do this, and
appointed city plan commission. This
commission requested the aid OF the archi-
tects OF Brooklyn. and a committee was
appointed. consisting of a representative
from the Brooklyn chapter Of the Ameri-
can Institute Of Architects. the Brooklyn
Institute and the Brooklyn League. The
committee prepared such a plan. which. |
believe. was embodied in a report sub
mitted 10 the Mayor.
This plan showed new diagonal street
joining the present Borough Hall Park and
the plaza al the new Manhattan Bridge
terminal II also showed new street
running from Borough Hall Park To Fort
Greene Park on an axis with the present
Ship Martyrs monument
Either of these new streets would form
an ideal site for our public buildings.
would have them all in direct connection
with the existing buildings. and would
make II unnecessary for our judges TO
scour the city. fight all the allied real
estate interests in the city. and. after
reaching a decision. put their new court
house in an incOnspicuous back corner and
be forced by public opinion TO reverse
their decision"
