Text Appearing Before Image:
eatures in the City betterment plan was the recent coveringof the stream (Jones Falls) which formerly flowed in an openchannel through the center of the City. The flow is nowthrough three concrete tubes, consisting in part, of the largestdrainage tunnel in the world. The top of these conduits and tunnel is now a highway ofa minimum width of 75 feet. This drive will provide a directhighway on an easy grade running diagonally across the Cityfrom the docks to the railroad terminals. This great improve-ment is a part of an elaborate and connected scheme of futuredevelopment, the main feature of which is a Civic Center tothe east of the City Hall. To the west, forming a part of thegeneral plan, are the Postoifice and Baltimores three-million-dollar Courthouse. Another project of importance in which the City is nowengaged is the construction of Key Highway, a wide thorough-fare extending from Light street, along or very near the water-front, to Fort McHenry—a distance of several miles. 21
