Owing to the reconstruction, the drain has had its share of attention. More pipe has been laid and several new catch-basins added. All of the old catch-basin stones have been changed to conform with the new line and grades and to the widening of the road-bed. The appropriation has been exceeded, which amount has been charged to the construction of Broadway.


By reference to the table it will be seen that the Broadway appropriation has been exceeded by $6,108.54. This amount has been charged to the general highway account.


The cost of labor and materials used on intersecting streets necessitated by the change of grade was $1,276.28.


EASTERN AVENUE.


Late in the season from near residence of Edwin Robbins to Highland avenue was covered with loose gravel. The coming season this should be rolled and covered with blue gravel. Labor and teams $20 00 Gravel 217 50

FOREST STREET


From junction of new Bow street to Mr. Wanamaker's line has been graded to a width of forty feet. The road-bed has been graveled and coated over with a light covering of fine crushed stone. In grading this portion of the street considerable ledge had to be removed. This, with ledge in front of Mr. Jardine's, was blasted and the stone carted to crusher. A retaining wall on the east side has been built from Mr. Wanamaker's line, northerly, for a distance of 325 feet. The gutters on both sides have been paved. At the junction with Mass. avenue a brick crosswalk has been laid.

HUTCHINSON ROAD (formerly called Oak street)


From Old Mystic street to just beyond William Welch's resi- dence was badly washed by the heavy Spring rains. In many places the gutters were cut away to a depth of from three to four feet. These places were filled with small stones. The road-bed for this distance has been covered with a coat of gravel. Labor and teams. $36 75

LAKE STREET.


It has been several years since this street was coated over with crushed stone. The surface has become very rough and has required considerable patching the last season. It should be resurfaced with fine crushed stone its entire length. A brick walk has been constructed across the street at the junction with Mass. avenue.


22


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.


On the south side a concrete walk has been laid from Mass. avenue to the railroad crossing. The north sidewalk from the railroad crossing to near the Belmont line has been repaired. . The edge of this walk was high, which allowed the water to re- main in many places. This edge has been cut down and the sidewalk coated with stone dust.


MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE.


Both sides of the avenue from Water street to Lowell street have been put in good condition by first excavating all portions of the street where there was not a suitable amount of stone for a road-bed. It was brought to subgrade by course stone. The entire street was then covered with No. 2 crushed stone to a depth of from six to eight inches, well rolled, and then coated over with screened blue gravel. This gravel was well rolled and the street surfaced with stone dust. Other sections of the avenue have required considerable patching.


Early the coming season the avenue from Water to Medford street, on both sides, should be put in good condition, and I should advise that this portion of the street be paved with vitri- fied brick.


From the junction of Broadway to Alewife Brook, on the east side, it should be resurfaced with crushed stone. The road- bed is becoming very rough, as it has been eight years since it was last repaired. Between Lowell street and Park avenue, on the east side, is another portion that should be attended to this year.


Owing to the change of grade by the construction of the electric road on Broadway at the junction with the avenue, it was found necessary to lay a surface drain at the head of Med- ford street to connect with the drain opposite Swan's Block.


A macadam walk has been built on the east side from Winter

The east sidewalk has had a similar coating, opposite the residence of George A. Teel and from Forest street to opposite Appleton street.

MOUNT VERNON STREET.


This street has been put in good condition by paving the gutters their entire length. The surface has been given a good crown by a coat of blue gravel, well rolled. The north sidewalk has been graded with fine gravel and stone dust. Stone dust has been put on the walk on the south side, from the avenue to a point just beyond Edward N. Rand's.


In addition to the above, the corners of the street at the junc- tion with Mass. avenue have been enclosed with circle stone. Labor and teams $239 00

now but little crown and the water does not readily find its way to the gutters, thus causing the surface to wash away during heavy rains.


There have been 122 sq. yds. of gutters paved in front of the residence of George H. Stevens, at a cost of one dollar per yard. Stone dust has been put on both sidewalks where needed.


PLEASANT STREET.


The concrete walk has been extended from Spring Valley to Lake street, making a continuous walk on the south side, from the centre to the Belmont line.


At Wellington street a brick crosswalk has been laid.


Edgestone has been set in front of the residence of Dr. Stick- ney and the Misses Cutter. At George H. Bartlett's the edge stone has been taken from the street line and reset on the curb line.


The surface of the street from Swan street to Spring Valley is in a rough condition and has required considerable patching. The street should be graded to afford better drainage for the surface water, as after heavy rain the water stands in many places.


ROBBINS ROAD .


At the upper end was badly washed, requiring 150 loads of gravel to put it in condition. The paving in many places had to be reset, caused by the water working its way beneath it. Labor $33 00

This stone was well rolled and then a coating of screened blue gravel and stone dust put on and rolled again.'

CLEANING STREETS AND CATCH-BASINS.


There has been considerable attention paid to the cleaning of streets and catch-basins, necessitating quite an expense. 1,- 409 loads of scrapings have been teamed to the Park and the balance has been used to fill low places back of sidewalks.


28


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.


STONE CRUSHER.


As the crusher was put in good repair last year, it will require but a small outlay this next season.


The several thousand tons of stone that have been carried over at the yard from previous years have been crushed and used on the streets, leaving but a few tons for crushing.


STEAM-ROLLER.


The roller has been in constant use from early in the spring to the time the ground commenced to freeze this fall.


Steps have been taken toward the purchase of new driving wheels, as they are considerably worn, one of them being cracked, and it was feared that it would give out before the end of the season.


OFFAL AND ASHES


Have been removed the same as last year. The first offal cart which was purchased will require a new body, as the old one has rusted through in many places.


WATERING STREETS.


This last year all the watering carts were let out by contract. This was done at the uniform price of $450 for the season. There was one two-horse watering cart purchased from the Studebaker Manufacturing Co., which has given perfect satis- faction. The sprinkler on one of the carts should be changed, and I should advise that it be replaced by one after the Stude- baker type.


29


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.


TEAMS AND TOOLS.


There has been purchased the last season one pair of horses, making the number of horses now in use by the Highway and Health Departments, sixteen. One double road cart has been added and also a two-horse watering cart, otherwise the num- ber of teams is the same as last year. The carts and tools are receiving needed repairs to put them in good condition for the next season's work.
