The city's assessment for Metropolitan parks and boulevards for the year 1906 amounted to $11,120.19 on construction ac- count, and $10,744.99 being the proportional cost for maintain- ing the same; in addition to this, the city's special assessment for the newly-constructed Wellington bridge, across Mystic river on the line of the Metropolitan parkway, amounted to $8,059.54 on construction account, and $1,204.78 for maintenance. Som- erville pays a separate assessment, together with four other cities, of twelve and one-half per cent. of the cost of construction and maintenance of this new bridge, besides the proportional part of the Metropolitan park district assessment ; the total of the above assessments amounting to $31,129.50, being Somerville's propor- tional payment to the state on account of the Metropolitan park system for the year 1906. The length of the state boulevard at present constructed in this city consists of seven-tenths of a mile of double roadway.
Whenever the plan of sanitary improvement is carried out along the line of Alewife brook, on the northwesterly boundary of Somerville, a boulevard could be constructed along the banks of this brook at small expense, connecting Massachusetts avenue in Cambridge with the city's Powder-house boulevard, which
