BALTIMORE, Jan. Is (P).-A
national expert hired by the

DR.. Pietro BelluSchi, dean Of

site could be built for $1,070. 900
and would be "as available" as
a suburban site which drew so
much opposition when recon-
mended by the Civic Center
Commission several months ago.
Park Site Protested
The commission had picked
Carlin's Park, an amusement

terday to suggest a new site.
DR.. Belluschi's report showed
how the northern side of the
inner harbor could be filled and
used for construction of a hotel,
restaurant, shops. Office build
ings, pedestrian plazas and a
marine museum. He also showed
how an apartment house and a
site for the SIG million Federal
office building could be worked
into the harbor area.
Arena Would Hold 10000
But he said all of this would
be something for the future
when a master plan for the
downtown area has been COM
pleted.
For the present, he said, the
civic center arena and exhibition
hall could be constructed with a
seating capacity of 10000. with
100000 square feet of exhibition
space and parking facilities for
$500 automobiles, not counting
off street parking garages and
newly completed parking facil-
tiles which now border the
