THE EXTENSION OF FRONT STREET. Some
time ago the city gov ernment voted to extend
Front street along the shore from the railway
station to the lower bridge. but nothing has
been done in that direction. The building of
the sardine plant has again directed attention
to this proposed improvement. That such a
road is needed is generally admitted. There is
good deal of heavy teaming to and from the
east side, coal, leatherboard, etc which now has
to 20 via Bridge street, and the proposed road
would not only shorten the distance but give
an easier haul Sooner or later what is COM
monty known as Puddledock will be filled in
and there will be desirable sites for manufac-
turing establishments on this road, with the
facilities for railroad transportation at hand
and easy and convenient access to the water
front.
