ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1959-12-30

Please be advised that time
is already short, that steam
ship lines are already pretty
well booked for 1860 and that
we shall have great difficulty
in securing accommodations
for that mode of transporta-
ton.
And, yet, we cannot en-
ter into any agreement
with the carriers until we
know how many are going.
Even the hotel management
in Yugoslavia is also ur-
gently asking that we make
our needs known to them
NOW.
It will be easier to provide
air space, particularly if we
are able to fill an entire aer-
oplane. In such a case we
might even be able to reduce
the total cost for the air pas
sengers, so we are recon-
mending that as many as
possible consider travelling
by air.
The Trip In Nutshell
Let's itemize here those
things which have ELECTED the
most questions up to now:
The trip will take place in
July. We plan on having the
groups leave New York in
the first week of July.
The duration of the trip
will be about s or 6 weeks and
will be along the lines Of our
last such European sojourn
in 1856, i. e.. the group will

Q A large area. entirely within

expand to 23 truck spaces. At
the old Eleventh street plat

trucks could be loaded stimuli

. A total floor space Of 397,-

triple the working area Of the

Q A new type Of draftless,

used 24.S00 cubic yards Of con-
crete and 1000 tons of struc-
tural steel.
To a motorist driving by. the
new Star appears little different
from any other attractive urban
office building.
Inside. however. the use OF
every inch Of its 6.3 million
cubic feet Of space has been
mapped out during more than
six years Of intensive research
and planning.
40 Plants Studied
Starting in 1852. teams of
company officials began visits
to more than 40 modern news
papers throughout the country
One Of the most prolific trav-
elers was Charles w. WEIGH,
assistant business manager,
who. armed with cameras and
a tape recorder. brought back
scores of pictures and recorded
notes. The volumes Of data
collected were analysed in
terms Of The Stars specific
needs and--with the full par
ticipation of each department
head-the detailed plans finally
were drawn.
The most striking construc-
ton feature is the buildings
division into two sections. sep
arated by a north-south wall
which cuts through the struc-
ture from Virginia avenue to
the I street side (see sketch at
bottom of page). On the west
side Of the wall-the side
nearest Second street-most
mechanical operations are con-
centrated. On the east are
located the news and business
departments Of the paper.
Construction began in August.

building fronts on Virginia ave-
nue.. just across from Garfield
Park, and covers most Of the
city block bounded by Virginia
avenue and Second, Third and
! streets.
It is Just south Of the pro-
posed Southeast freeway "a
part Of the Districts elmer
loop" highway network which
in q few years viii give The
Stars delivery trucks fast free
way routes around the congest-
ed central business district to
every section of the growing
Metropolitan Area.
This system Of traffic circu-
lation was one Of the prime
factors in the final determine
ton Of the new Star location.
Another was the availability Of
rail facilities. since The Star
receives more than IS per cent
of its basic raw material
newsprint-by rail. In addi-
ton. the building Is directly
east Of The Stars large service
garage and warehouse installa-
tons: thus the company's hold
ings will be concentrated In a
single area.
Authorized in 1852
Actually The Star began as
sembling the site for a limited
expansion of its garage and
service facilities in 1913. When
the new building project was
authorized in 1852. company
officers studied alternate sites
in the city which appeared to
show promise of suitability.
When the merits Of all the pos
sibilities were weighed. how
ever. none surpassed the Viz
ginia avenue site.
The exterior Of the new
building includes one story Of
gray ceramic brick. above which
are light gray pre-cast concrete
wall panels. The cafeteria and
other fifth-fioor structures are
set back from the main building
line. Following modern build
ing practices, there are a linn
tied number of windows. re-
stricted to the Virginia avenue
side,
The main entrance is on Vir-
ginia avenue, near Third street.
Its lobby has walls Of st. Gene
We've rose marble, quarried in
with walnut trim, and
. terrazzo floor in which is
embedded a 3-foot colored re-
production Of The Stars ofii-
cial seal.
Interior office areas are gen.
orally open, with partial metal
and glass partitions dividing
the office space.

The building contains 3.487
