consist of a wall that will rise to a
height of about eighteen feet above
the granolithic walk. The prome
nade will be about 240 feet long and
will extend from the present line of
the water house to the granolithic
walk. Originally It had been intend
ed to provide a railing along the top
but Commissioner Bowman has de
cided that this will offer an element
of danger to youngsters. Accordingly
he has revised the plan to substitute
a ccncrete coping, three and a half
feet high.
Despite the wet weather of the last
few days the River Wall contractors
have been pushing the work on the
granolithic walk and as soon as the
construction work reaches the pump
ing station, the erection of the plaza
will begin.
