AREA WAY VS..
PUBLIC POLICY
OUTSIDE sTAlRWAYs coNsID-
Erred AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY
AND FELT BY MANY TO uSuRP
SIDEWALK SPACE IN PRoMi-
NENT THoRouoHFAREs.

Several complaints have been regis
tered recently at the city engineer s
Office by number of prominent bust
ness men who are against the construc-
ton Of area ways and outside stair
ways on the public streets, which are
thought to usurp sidewalk space. There
are already several area ways in
Broadway which take up from three
to four feet of space, which Is thought
to obstruct the passage of pedestrians.
The city engineer has given his at
tention to the matter and with the city
engineer will endeavor TO curb any
future building along this line.
Preparations had been made for the
building of an area way in front of
the new Prize cafe building near the
corner of Broadway and N. P. avenue.
A stairway had, been planned to lead
downstairs from the sidewalk level OH
the front exterior of the building,
which would have required about
three and one-haIf feet of pavement
space. Although such an area way
would have been we'll protected by
strong brass ratings, it was thought
by many of the leading business men
in the same block that such stair
way would usurp space which other
wise should be given over totally to
the use Of pedestrian traffic.
City Engineer Anders looked care
fully into the matter and brought the
attention of the contractors and own
ers of the building to it's illegality. AS
result there will be an inside stair
way instead. He sought the advice
of City Attorney Shure who cooper
ated in the movement by going care
fully over the city ordinances govern
ing such features in building in prom
inent business streets. All concurred
in the opinion that the building of
such areaways would not be in ac-
Cordance with public policy.
TT was not that there would be
any danger to the pedestrian" said
Mr.. Anders, "for the greatest care
would be preserved by the builders to
such area ways would not be in ac-
protected by a substantial railing but
l believe it would be against public
policy"
