FAVOR LAMONT STREET
FOR EXTENSION WORK
Commissioners Send Argu-
ment to Congress in Sup
port of Project.

Reports on bills for street extension
sent to the Capitol by the Commissioner:
yesterday show that the engineer de-
partment favOrS the extension of Lamont
street northwest from 10Th ito 2Otl
street. cutting through square 1904, and
that il does not by any means favor the
proposition to extend Benton street from
runlaw road to 37th street northwest
The Commissioners want to extend La
mont street on through to Adams Mil
road. and suggest to Congress that they
De allowed to acquire land for that pur-
pose. The entire cost of the extension
to Adams Mill road is estimated al
,0CO. including the purchase of the
land, which is unimprOved.
Argue for Lamont Street.
The Commissioners go into detail as to
why Lamont street should be extended:
The extension would be of great bene-
lit to all property now fronting on La.
most solidly with very desirable class
with very nne vista through the 20
illogical Park and the wooded country
beyond Rock creek. The erection of a
row OF houses on 18th street at the end
or Lamont street as II exists at present
would destroy this VISTA and the extern
sion of the street as proposed in the bill
would preserve the vista, with a decided
advantage TO the houses now built on the
ST. eet..
Too Steep for Vehicles.
1.-The difference in elevation between
18th and .lcn streets is about thirty-nine
feet, so that II would not be possible fol-
vehicular traffic to use the extension, but
access from Lamont street. to 10Th stree,
and Adams Mill road could be provided
for pedestrians by step and terrace
treatment, s!rnilar to that which now ex-
lsts on I'D street at s street. This
treatment would be particularly apprO.
pirate in the vicinity of the Geological
Park. While the principal benefit tC
arise from the extension of this street
would be the preservation OF the outlOOl
over the park, benefits would also accrue
to lots on 10th street and Adams Mil
road. by reason of the convenient acces:
which this extension would give to ex
listing car lines
The Commissioners say that the extern
sion Of Benton street will cost abou
50, $40, and that the area to be benefited
at the present time Is too small. Tha
1t would make the cost burdensOme anG
the benefits incommensurate with tn,
damages.
