North Clinton Street Pedestrian Debate Sparks City Hall Complaint
Citizens on the north side protest Hoard of Public Works plan to build no sidewalk on the west side of North Clinton Street from Fourth to Fifth, arguing the arrangement with Lake Shore railroad and the new freight house narrows the street and endangers pedestrians. They urge condemnation of railroad ground to widen for a west sidewalk, citing city deeds and a $100,000 Fort Wayne subsidy as context for public interest.
