REPORT OF THE CITY ENGINEER.


WATER WORKS.


Lines, grades and miscellaneous data have been furnished the Water department when requested ; all street mains, hydrants, gates, house services and connections have been accurately located and recorded in the Engineer's department, for future reference.


A number of blow-off connections have been made with the sewerage system for the purpose of emptying, when necessary, both the city's and Metropolitan water mains.


The new high-service reservoir being constructed by the State, in Middlesex Fells, will be completed during the coming year, and this city will be supplied with high-service pressure direct from this reservoir through the Metropolitan mains ; this extra pressure can be utilized with benefit to this city in the matter of increased fire protection in the low areas by the con- struction of a separate system of high-pressure water mains covering the dangerous fire districts.


APPENDED TABLES.


Following are two tables of streets, one showing the loca- tion, length and width of public and private streets in the city ; the other gives some of the names that present streets were formerly known as, or shown on old plans.


Respectfully submitted,


ERNEST W. BAILEY,


City Engineer.
