Official Action
On Waterfront
|sDue in June
Revised Proposal
For RedeveIopment
Would Double Area
BY GEOKGE BEvERIDGE
Star stan Writer

Proposals for a drastic revi-
sion of WaShington's Southwest
waterfront redevelopment plan
more than doubling the area
for waterfront facilities-are
expected to be ready for official
action in June.
The District Commissioners
yesterday Endorsed a restudy
Of the waterfront. Their &C.
ton, however. was mainly a
formality since the study al
ready is well under way.
Officials gave reporters, in
fact. a report and design draw
ings showing how the new
waterfront might look, as pro-
posed by a cosultant, Stanley
Sherman. Mr.. Sherman, a
professor Of architecture at the
University Of Michigan, worked
on the original Southwest re-
development plan as a former
employe of the William Zecken-
dorf firm, Webb & Knapp.
New Concepts
Mr.. Sherman strongly at
tackled the existing waterfront
proposals embodied in the city's
official redevelopment plan
adopted in 1956-and suggested
a series of entirely new con-
cepts for the waterfront.
Assistant Engineer Commits
sioner Thomas K. Fullerton,
who heads the Districts urban
renewal efforts, emphasized the
Sherman plan was merely a
preliminary study which has no
formal status"
He conceded. however, that it
does reflect the thinking" of
staff officials of tie District, the
Redevelopment Land Agency
and the National Capital Plan
ming Commissioh-the three
agencies which are responsible
for initiating changes in the
official redevelopment plan.
Such reviSions in the plan must
be cleared by the planners and
adopted by the city Commits
sioners after a public hearing.
Officials said they hoped defi-
mite proposals could be placed
before the planning commission
at its June meeting.
Assthe ofhcial plan now
stands. the new waterfront
would occupy a relatively small
crescent-shaped area devoted
mainly to parks and auto park
ing. The crescent would be
formed by a relocation Of Maine
avenue in which the avenue
would flare inland between
Twelfth and Seventh streets.
Under Mr.. Sherman's plan,

The radio station here was

of tourists more than replaced
them.
Weather conditions appeared
favorable for the traditional
display of finery. Clearing skies
were expected this evening,
bringing fair and brisk weather
tomorrow and Sunday. Tomor-
rows high will be in the mid
sos, and the outlook for Easter
Sunday is about the same.
Churches Begin Filling
At noon today churches were
filling with worshipers observ-
ing the three hours Christ
suffered on the cross. 1t was
a day of fasting and prayer,
with the knowledge that soon
the happy paeans of Easter
tide would ring out again.
Many Government workers
were permitted to attend
church during today's sacsad
hours. Schools were dismisSing
for the Easter holiday.
Among the thousands crowd
ing into the city were school
children making their tradi-
tional visits to the Capital.
Everywhere there was promise
of the best tourist season in
