Mime Lusa Sewer
Of Unique Design

Commissioner Jardine, in charge of
the public Improvements department,
is trying out a new idea in connection
with the twelve-foot storm water
sever being constructed along Mime
Lusa avenue. The sewer is twelve
feet across and seven and one-half
feet deep, of box type. A twenty-foot
paved roadway will rest directly on
top of the sewer and the connection
between sewer and roadway will be
such that in times of unusual flow in
the sewer the excess flow may be
carried off by means of surface drain
age without damage to manholes, as
frequently happens in times of un-
usual rainfall
A twenty-foot roadway will be laid
on the avenue east of the sewer and
between the two roadways will be a
thirty-seven-f foot parkway.
