At the last meeting of the Public Buildings Commission there were submitted two reports from the Committee on Location the minority against, and the majority for.the building of the structure on the intersection. This last report, which is too elaborate to be printed in full, con cludes with an answer to a communication sent by the antl-intersectionista to the commission, and thus concludes: Tour committee are unable to see anything In the communication which should lead the commission to hesitate a moment in proceeding promptly, and with the utmost despatch consistent with the security and solidity of the work, to erect the public buildings upon the Intersection of Broad and Market Btreets,as already determined upon 'and unless they are hindered and obstructed lu the discharge of their duties, they see no reason wby the buildings should not be fully completed by the time of the centennial anniversary of American Independence, when the many thousand visitors, who In the lan guage of the communication "doubtless will honor our city with their presence In 1878," will have the satisfaction of seeing that Philadelphia has placed nerpublw buildings upon a site where they can be seen to the best advantage, and from each of the four sides of which a noble vista will stretch to the four points of the compass, as far as the eye can reach. Architect McArthur, in answer to the resolu tion of the commission, also submitted a state ment detailing the two proposed plans for the buildings first for a building on the intersec tion; second, for a building on each of the plots of ground as now laid out, thus: Plan No. 1 exhibits the fcur plots, as described in the resolution, with the streets surrounding thnni of the lame width as Broad street, and area follows: Northeast plot, 831 feet 0 Inches by 105 feet, con tains an area of 9,187- superficial feet; northwest plot, 837 feet Inches by 160 ieet 6 luclie", contains an area of 89,118-6 superficial feet; southwest plot, 160 feet 6 Inches by 160 feet A inches, contains an area of 25,760 superficial feet; and the southeast plot, 16S feet by 160 feet A inches, contains an area of 86,488-e superficial feet 129 MS superficial feet. Plan No. 8 exhibits a single plot at the intersec tion, with street of 185 feet lu width surrounding the same, which leaves a total area for building of 184,231tf superficial feet, being an excess of 64,683 feet over the four plots, an area greater than the two smaller plots combined ; or, to make their rela tive capacity more appareut, the butldUgs erected upon the southeast aud southwest plots would be much smaller than the new Masonic temple, at broad and Filbert streets, and those upon the other two plots only a trifle larger. In presenting these plans ana opinions, in response to your request, i deem it my duty to say that several of our judges and other public o Ulcers have expressed regret at the limited provision for the future, which even the largest area at the intersection only affords, aud which must be still further circumscribed by con structirg the buildings upon four separate plots whose combined area is but a little more than two thirds of that proposed for the single structure. I have already called the attention of the com mission (in my letter of 81st of October last, herewith ap pended) to many of the advantages to be derived from the erection of a single oulldlDg In the centre of the square, and to that letter can only add my professional oplulon, that bef.ire many years have pasted the great public improvement inaugurated by this commission will, as a natural consequence, attract the attention of liberal and enterprising cltl rens, corporations, and educational and other socle ties to the locality of Penn Square, a result whl-Jh cannot fall to make that portion of our city ane of the caoiceit architectural spot lu America. Very respectfully, Johm McAbthuh, Ja. A L contemporary says, "ine nrst printers were i Titan." There are a good many -uxni nns among them stiu.
