The estimated cost that year is $60s, 100.
The fourth year, estimated cost Of
s61, 200, will see the start Of pier 3 and
the final settling Of the excursion steam
ers at pier 4.
1t is expected that $491 300 would be
spent in the fifth year which now calls
for the completion of the new home for
District government custodians of the
water front. The Fire Department will
take the upstream side of the dock and
the police the lower side. They will

The pier will also include six covered

which passengers will move to the steam

Second-Year Program
The second-year program is even
more extensive, and is estimated now
to cost $75l, ,80o The schedule calls for
dredging from pier No. l, a Coast Guard
facility, which will be built by the Coast
Guard dredging and start on construc-
ton of pier No. 2, now planned for use
by the Norfolk Washington steamers,
and start of actual work on yacht
basin g.
The yacht basin will have slips for
ISL boats, ranging from Is to 80 feet.
Its completion will afford Washington
yachtsmen total of 356 berths in the
three basins (No. has "a slips and
No. 2, Ill slips, and has every prospect
of being one of the finest-if not the
best-facility of its kind in the country.
Activities ashore will be centered in
an attractive two-story brick building,
which, like all other structures in the
program, will be of Colonial architec-
ture. Its dimensions are 40 feet by
104 feet, and planners say it will be
large enough to accommodate 200 men,

afford seats for 40, while on balcony
overlooking the channel another so

room, library and kitchen also have
been laid on the second floor.
The first floor will contain a large

lobby; spar storage room, stewards

and showers and toilets.
For Small and Large Graft
A main walkway centered on the
clubhouse will connect with landing

Two sections of the basin will be built
upstream from this centerline and four
