the piling for the wharf at Riverside,

firm built one wharf 500 feet long
and two concrete wharves. The wharf
opposite Riverside will be over 400
feet long. with a proviso to continue
il further into the river. Oak pilings
will be used on account of the quail

A spur track from the Delaware

piles as the line will have to cross
considerable marsh land.

One of the buildings. as laid out, will
be 900 feet long, while others will be
