Residents of Poplar place are of tho opinion that 1t ia timo their street was opened for travel as . thoroughfare. At ono timo 1t was possible for a car to pass from Congress to Washington avenues. but with the abandonment of the Third Congregational church there was danger of Injury to pedestrians from falling parts of the stceple. As a safeguard tho road was cloacd to all traffic and fenced of. The fence was soon converted Into fire. wood and posts were driven In to tho ground and reinforced with largo boulders. The building has bcon torn down for moro than Hix years ana still the street remains bloekaded. Contrary to tho belief of residents, thero Is no property owned by tho city on which to make tho street. All of tho land extending to tho adjoining prop. crty on Washington avenue is own- cd by Tracy Bros, This land must first bo purchased and should such bo tho easo it Ia probable that property owners on Poplar, place would be assessed for the improve. mcnt,
 Several people prominent In civ. ic life have visited tho spot recent. iy and agreed tho street should bo opened. At tho present time Poplar place leads from Congress avenue to within q hundred yards of Washington avenue and is known as n "Dead End" street. A strip In width of about 90 feet of tho Tracy property would bo enough for the completion of tho road and should this bo available tho cost would be reasonable as would ho tho assessment placed on tho property owners, This project would also moan tho elimination of the alley appearance of the present Poplar place. It is n thick iy populated section and deserves moro in tho way of a street loca- ton.
 Tho matter would havo to Do considered by tho board of public works who In turn would notify said property owners of thcir sur- vcy. Should all Nrrangements Do satiafa aetory tho matter would he brought bofore tho aldormnnic board for acceptance.
