Rekindles Project
The State College Junior. Chamber of Commerce recently
attempted to regenerate interest in a 2 Vi'-y ear-old proposal
for a pedestrian shopper’s mall in the 100 block of S. Allen St.
The conducted a
feeling on the project. Studei
were invited to complete, a ques
tionnaire which the Jaycees dis
tributed. |
The mall idea would have ve
hicular traffic excluded from the
100 block of S. Allen Sf. and
shrubbery plantings set in what
is how the street. It was detailed
in-a project report of fifth year
architecture students during the
fall, 1959 semester.
THE STUDENTS investigated
similar projects, surveyed mer
chant reaction, made pedestrian
and traffic studies, and outlined
the steps which might be taken
to convert the street into a per
manent mall.
The reaction of the merchants
who would be most directly af
fected by such a project was
generally favorable. Businessmen
on College and Beaver Avenues
and S. Allen St. > supported the
idea by percentages of IDO, 00 and
44 respectively. |

ARGUMENTS IN support of a
pedestrian mall included greater
shopping convenience and safety
as - well as the addition of an
aesthetically pleasing area to the
community. •
The Jaycees now plan to con
duct their own survey of mer
chant reaction to the mall pro
posal as well as a study of the
experiences of other towns and
cities which have established
mails.
The cost of the mall, including
a temporary or trial version, was
estimated at $31,000 to $46,000,
depending on the complexity of
the desired area, in the architec
ture student's report.

Frondizi’s friend Guido may have
betrayed his trust by agreeing to
step into his shoes.
