SUGGESTIONS BY
CITY PLAN BODY.
Recommend Sidewalks and
Curb Along Two Streets
and Restricted Districts.

The City Plan Commission has
placed before the aldermen several
suggestions, which include recon-
m~endations for sidewalks and curb
ings to be laid on New Brunswick
avenue from the present brick pave
ment west of the city hospital as
far os the city line and also for
sidewalks and curbings on the east
side of Florida Grove road from
New Brunswick avenue to the city
reservoir, both of these improve
nIents to be done at the property
owners expense.
Another recommendation from
the city plan body is that no one
story buildings be erected in the
following named streets: State
street. from the Lehigh Valley rail-
road bridge to Market street: New
Brunswick avenue. from the Lehigh
Valley crossing to Smith street;
Fayette street, from the Central
railroad crossing to High street;
Smith stree, from Davidson avenue
to High street: the following side
streets between Market and Smith
streets. Davidson venue, Watson
avenue, Prospect street, Oak street,
Elm street. Maple street. McClel-
Ian street. Madison venue, Hobart
street, state street, hlnB street ana
Fayette. The following side streets
between Smith and Fayette streets:
Easton street, Prospect street, Oak
street. Elm street, Maple street, Nc
Clellan street, Madison avenue, Ho-
bart street. State street and high
street.
AS the result of a suggestion made
at a joint meeting of city plan and
coming bodies last week. two of the
city's sharp orner are to be elimin-
ated. The corner of Smith street
and New Brunswick avenue, will be
30 laid out that a graceful curve
will take the place of the present
sharp angle. The radius is now six
feet. Instead of the present short
radius it will be heightened to sixteen
feet. At the corner of Brace avenue
and Amboy avenue. where the new
route to the bridge will be diverted
from the north as soon as the paw
ing of Brace avenue and Convery
Place is completed. the corner will
be rounded with a thirteen foot ra-
dius. At present there is a sharp cor
ner with a six foot radius.
