CompIicating the situation.

The letter after pointing out that the
committee on ports and terminal facilities
Of the Board Of Estimate has been seeking
10 eliminate the operation at grade Of the
present tracks of the New York Central
and the solution of the freight terminal
problem then SAYS:
THE public discussion disclosed beyond
doubt that the effort to solve these two
problems at the same time without the
cltv having general plan OF Its own has
resulted merely in compllcating the situa-
ton, confusing the issues and leading to
the acceptance Of certain legal and bust
ness propositions advanced by the railroad
company which did not and could not
meet with the approval OF the civic organ
iaations.
I'VE are convinced that the time has ar
rived for the formulation Of "A positive and
definite policy on the part Of the admin
istration"
The following features are suggested as
essential to the solution Of the problem:
1.-THE railroad tracks must he removed
from the surface Of Eleventh avenue and
other streets and public parks and places.
Riverside Park as a park must he de-
veloped to its full extent by the improve
ment Of the park lands west of the present
railroad right of way, the planting OF the
necessary grass and shrubs to complete
the landscape and the roofing over OF the
railroads right Of way, but without wider
right or way tndh AT present occupied.
THE title OF the city to lands along
she waterfront should be investigated and
no such lands owned by the city should
be alienated.
little to the streets and avenues now
owned by the city from Fffty-ninth street
to Seventy-second street must be re-
tained by the city. and such OF them
should he opened as public thoroughfares
by means Of viaducts over the tracks
- are required FOR the convenience OF
the public.
