The plan calls for smaller entrances on Fifth Avenue Diamond and Ross streets with elevators on the Grant street side. A bridge would connect the main and present towers like the bridge of sighs.

Property on Diamond street bought for 750000 may fund extensions. Costs are based on recent large city projects in New York and elsewhere.
