Finishing the Capitol Hill tunnel top drift
The Capitol Hill tunnel near Capitol Hill will be bored through today or tomorrow, with less than twenty feet of earth to cut before daylight at the northern end near First Street northeast. Work on the new Union Depot and two large House and Senate office buildings proceeds behind barriers with little public notice. The tunnel runs from Canal Street southeast under First Street to near Catrest northeast, with the depot at its northern terminus. Ground conditions vary from made soil to hard clay and pudding stone, causing occasional subsidence and street repairs near the Congressional Library. Marble blocks for the House building are rising on B Street front, and contractors expect to finish two stories by Christmas.
