A house at the Grove st. entrance is to be moved from the property to make room for the new street. This, will be 50 feet wide, with a full-wldtb sidewalk along the south- ern side of the field, a street and a narrow sidewalk to the north. It is expected that In time stores will be erected along the court for its entire length. There also will be entrances to the street from Mer- rick rd. alongside the theatre. To park, cars will have to be driven the full length of the street and then turned north into the parking area in the rear .of the A&P store. i- Two Sewer Contracts Let The T. & T.
