That Majority Report of which so much was
aid.
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.
