Indianapolis has the best planned

Gently visited
Indianapolis does not have the
problem Of widening and opening
streets in the downtown section be-
cause the original planners Of the city
took care Of that problem" Mr.. Sheri-
dan said. There is not a street IN
our mile square less than ninety feet
wide and the width from one building
line TO another in Washington street
IS 120 feet. Because it Is not neces-
sary for Indianapolis to make large
exenditures for opening new thorough
fares in the downtown district as
some eastern cities now are doing,
the city can proceed with tho i'm
provement Of street conditions IN dis
tricts where the property value is
not so great. The layout OF our bust
ness district is of financial benefit TO
concerns using the streets for daliv-
cry purpose, as deliveries can be made
more rapidly here than IN other
cities"
