Obstacle to City Plan Delays Southern Railway Building
Col Hart warns a $750000 private office project on the south side of Pennsylvania Ave between the District building and Southern Railway could force costly government acquisitions and hinder the plan to place most department buildings between the Capitol and the Washington Monument. He notes private ownership risks raising future condemnation costs and slows south Pennsylvania avenue development, as firms relocate westward to E F and G streets to avoid impending government action.
