TO EXTENSION PLANS

portant obligation resting upon the
city to co-operate in every way with
the State officials in adopting the best
character of treatment so that the
property of the city impinging upon
the Capitol grounds will harmonize
with that of the State. Governor
Brumbaugh and State Treasurer
Young, both of whom discussed the
matter In a broad way, declared that
tho State wants to do everything to
bring about an arrangement which
will give the best results for the city
and the Commonwealth. In order
that this may be accomplished It is
their opinion and that also of Auditor
General Powell; whose views were
expressed in a letter, that nothing
should be done by one side or the
other which will in any way Impair
the general scheme of treatment.
State Street Main Approach
After a very thorough discussion of
I the whole problem by members of
| the Board of Public Grounds and
I Buildings, the Capitol Park and the
City Planning Commissions, it was
I agreed that the main entrance to the
city from the east should be over State
street and that either a subway or an
ornamental viaduct should be pro
vided at the Pennsylvania Railroad;
that the streets surrounding the
Capitol grounds should be increased
in width; that full consideration
should be given the matter of proper
rights of way for the street railway
lines so as not to interfere with the
general landscape plan. It was also
stated by Governor Brumbaugh that
the Commonwealth through its proper
officials would resist before the Public
Service Commission any grant for the
Walnut street bridge. The Governor
emphatically declared that so long as
he was Governor no appropriation for
the widening of any street to be used
as an approach to a bridge in Walnut
street would be approved.
Subway or Viaduct
As to whether a viaduct or subway
is more desirable at the State street
crossing of the Pennsylvania Railroad
was a matter which it was agreed
should be studied by the distinguished
landscape architects who will be em
ployed by the State and city to sug
gest the proper treatment. All present
at the conference believed that this
was a question for serious thought.
It is expected that the Board of Pub
lic Grounds and Buildings will im
mediately choose one of several dis
tinguished landscape designers to
collaborate with Warren H. Manning,
the city's landscape adviser, in the
working out of the several problems
involved in the reforming of the lines
of Capitol Park from thfr railroad to
Third street and from Walnut to
North. .
Governor Brumbaugh has requested
the City Planning Commission to sub
mit to the Board of Public Grounds
and Buildings as soon as possible all
data relating to the traffic upon the
streets bounding the State grounds.
This for the purpose of making a
proper recommendation to the Legis
lature as to the widening of these
tstreets.
The interchange of blews respecting
the various phases of the problem was
very interesting and all present ex
pressed gratification that the ilrst im
portant step had been taken which
will lead to the final solution of the
various problems to be worked out in
connection with the park treatment.
Governor Brumbaugh expressed the
hope that the Pennsylvania Railroad
and all tho other railroad interests
of the city would co-operate in a plan
■for a great union 'station at Walnut
street so that this station and the ap
proaches thereto as well as the viaduct
or subway at State street might be
worked out in some harmonious
scheme of treatment that would em
brace the utilitarian as v/ell as the
artistic requirements.
Samuel B. Rambo, Superintendent'
Of Public Grounds and Buildings, ■
stated that the topograpnical survey!
recently made by students of State
Collego and upon which a report was
In preparation had been sent by ex
press, but had not arrived In time for
the conference. It will be used as a
basis for a study of the whoTe mat
ter by the two landscape designers
representing the city and the State.
Things will move rapidly In plan
| nlng this important section of the city
so that it may be in effect a part of
I the local park system.
