Generals Ireland and others urged that extending Fourteenth Street streetcar lines through Walter Reed hospital grounds would harm patients due to noise and dust. War Secretary Weeks and Army Engineer Beach heard the plan, while opponents argued the extension would stunt development and that cheaper land south could be used. Col Kutz noted hospital needs and suggested cross-footbridges if tracks ran through the grounds.
