REPORT OF THE TOWN ENGINEER.
ARLINGTON, MASS., February 10, 1913.
To the Joint Board of Selectmen and Board of Public Works.
Gentlemen: The annual report of the Engineering Department for the year ending December 31, 1912, is respectfully submitted, with a statement of expenditures and a general description of the important work; also such suggestions as have been deemed proper.
The work of the Engineering Department consists of furnishing the several Town Departments with such information, plans, designs, estimates and data of an engineering nature as they may require; also keeping careful notes, measurements and locations of new work, additions, changes and extensions as they occur, and properly recording the same for future references by maps, plans, or profiles.
The department has made designs, plans, estimates of cost of contemplated and completed public work, etc., as required by the different departments and committees.
All survey notes, records and plans made of sewers, drains, highways, water works, etc., have been filed and indexed for future reference.
All' plans of estates in Arlington recorded at the Registry of Deeds at East Cambridge have been copied; titles examined, and abstracts from deeds made for the purpose of assessments and the proportional part of the cost of new work computed, and schedules of assessments made out, showing the cost to property owners.
The policy of the Board requires that the Town Engineer must be consulted on all work where the advice of a civil engineer would be of service; and no structure of any kind can be placed upon, beneath or above any street by any Department of the Town, corporation or individual, until a plan is furnished, showing its location, and is approved by him.
All engineering expense is charged to the Department or Board for which work has been done, and is classified for the year as follows:

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
Under this heading I report only such features as seem to me to belong to the Engineering Department, knowing that the details of the work will be reported by the Board.
On account of the reconstruction and relaying of the car tracks in Massachusetts Avenue from Arlington Heights to Water Street a new profile and grade plan was made which provided for raising the grade of the car tracks about three inches above its former grade.
The new tracks were laid and the street rebuilt to this new grade with the result that a better drained and more durable roadway has been obtained.
Lines and grades for the construction of Norfolk Road at its connection with Pleasant Street were given by this Department.
Lines and grades of accepted streets were given to citizens who were desirous of obtaining them for various purposes.
368
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
Lines and grades were given, measurements and Betterment Assessments figured for all the permanent sidewalks built during the past year.
On both sides of Lo abard Road from Pleasant Street to the Spy Pond Playground granolithic sidewalks were laid, thus affording a pleasing and permanent entrance to the field.
Stone bounds have been set on Hutchinson Road on the new lines as fixed by the County Commissioners.
Many of our old streets are not properly marked with stone bounds. This being a very important matter the work should be done as soon as possible.
The County Commissioners have commenced the work of widening the lines of Mystic Street at the Winchester line near the grounds of the Country Club for the purpose of eliminating the dangerous conditions which have existed at this place. The work consists of taking about ten feet in width from the Langley estate, widening to the old County lines on the Country Club side, and the placing of the car tracks in the center of the highway at the place of greatest danger.
Studies and estimates were made for sewers in North Union Street, Norcross Street, Fremont Street, Pond Lane extension; but no appropriation having been made, the sewers were not con- structed.
I strongly recommend that this work be done this year, as the sanitary conditions in these sections are very bad and are a source of numerous complaints to the Board of Health.
This Department has made sewer assessment plans for the sewer extension work of 1911 which show properties, manholes, locations, sizes and depth of sewers, inlets, buildings and connec- tions thereof, profiles, etc.
Surveys have been made of properties to be assessed for sewer construction work done in 1912, and are to be shown on plans to complete the record for the year's work.
WATER DIVISION.
Plans were made showing the location of all water mains, gates, hydrants, etc. laid this year and were plotted on the Water System Map of the Town.
369
TOWN ENGINEER'S REPORT
CEMETERY DEPARTMENT.
Plots P and Q in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery were graded in accord- ance with plans made by this Department, the surplus gravel being used to fill Meadow Brook Park in accordance with the Park Commissioner's plan.
An unsightly and unhealthful area formerly used as a dump has been transformed into a clean and healthful spot suitable for park or other purposes.
A six-inch water pipe and a ten-inch storm drain were laid in this new section and plot Q marked into lots.
BOARD OF SURVEY.
All plans submitted to the Board for approval were carefully checked, and six plans approved.
The Board has made a rule not to finally approve of a street until the owner has set stone bounds in accordance with the data shown on the plan. The positions of the bounds are then verified by the Engineering Department.
GENERAL ENGINEERING.
Under this heading I have included Engineering matters which are not previously covered in this report.
The Boston Elevated Railway Company has laid underground ducts in Henderson Street from Massachusetts Avenue to the Somerville line for the purpose of completing their electrical circuit with Somerville. This enabled the company to discon- tinue the use of the Clarendon Hill Power Station, a fact appre ciated by the residents of East Arlington, who were greatly an - noyed by the noise from this station.
This office has furnished information and performed more or less work for Mr. Clipston R. Sturgis, the architect of the New Town Hall.
Lines and grades were given for the new concrete grandstand on Spy Pond Athletic Field, it being so placed that enough gravel was excavated to regrade a large part of the field. This regrading was occasioned by the changing of the baseball diamond nearer to and parallel with the new grandstand.
Preliminary plans and specifications were prepared for a rein- forced Concrete Bridge over Alewife Brook at Henderson Street
370
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
extension, and this matter is now in the hands of a committee appointed by the Town.
Final surveys and completed plans have been made for Sucker Brook improvement, the abolition of grade crossings, and the area bounded by Mystic Street, Winchester line, Forest Street, Boston and Lowell Railroad and Summer Street. These plans are all being carefully considered by special committees, which will make reports in the near future.
The Metropolitan Park Commission have extended the new channel of Alewife Brook from Little Spy Pond to Lake Street. I desire to repeat my suggestion of last year that this channel be connected with Spy Pond. This would improve the sanitary conditions of the pond, and give the townspeople a waterway from Spy Pond to Boston Harbor.
Massachusetts Avenue, opposite the New Town Hall, has been made seventy-five feet in width. This was accomplished by taking nine feet from the southerly side, and as the land was all owned by the Town, no land damages were incurred. If this widening were continued to the Lexington line the congestion on Massachusetts Avenue would be greatly relieved.
The need of the extension of Summer Street to Forest Street is becoming more imperative every day, not only to take some of the traffic from Massachusetts Avenue, but also to develop the northerly part of the Town.
The plan is to continue the boulevard which now ends at Med- ford Street along the shore of Lower Mystic Lake through Meadow Brook Park to Summer Street, thence continuing through Summer Street in accordance with the Board of Survey lines to Brattle Street, thence through private lands to the junction of Forest and Bow street, and thence through Bow Street to Lowell Street, Park Avenue and Massachusetts Avenue.
This would establish a new route of travel from Cambridge, Somerville, Medford and Winchester to Lexington, Concord and towns beyond. The construction of Gray Street from a point about four hundred feet northwest of Bartlett Avenue to Oakland Avenue, as accepted by the Town, should be seriously considered at an early date. If the Town is committed to the building of this street, then the land necessary for its construction should be taken at once, as its value is increasing every year.
371
TOWN ENGINEER'S REPORT
Street Numbering Plans of all new streets have been made and numbers assigned to all buildings.
In addition to the foregoing, the Engineering Department has performed miscellaneous services for all Town Officers and Departments, and has given information to citizens whenever requested.
Annexed to this report is a table giving names of all streets in the Town, public and private, length, width and total mileage.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE E. AHERN,
Town Engineer.
