The Western Pacific Railroad will start building freight and passenger terminals on the Oakland side of San Francisco Bay after a long delay. A $700,000 contract covers ferry and freight slips, with $120,000 more for initial work. Two slips, one for freight and one for passengers, will be 600 feet long with a minimum depth of 15 feet, and boats of 230 feet, seating 1200 to 1500, costing $220,000 each, are planned to run 15 minutes to San Francisco. Completion is estimated in six months, with additional grading work contracted for $1,000,000 near Ishus Creek, north to Ninth and Brannan streets.
