WILL MAKE SOLID FILLS .More Than $300,000 Is in He Ex pended by the City in Kast Portland During the Next Few Month. Between eight and ten miles of per manent pavement and embankment costing more than $200,000 arc In store for Central East Portland this Spring. One of tne most important Improve ments to be made as early as possible Is the paving of Hawthorne avenue be tween East Third to East Fortieth street with bltullthlc pavement, and the filling In of the avenue between East First and East Third. The ob ject "Is to make Hawthorne avenue an important thoroughfare extending eastward from Madison bridge. No op position so far has developed against this Improvement and the preliminaries arc Wine pushed through the Council so that work can be started this Spring. Hawthorne avenue is 70 feet -wide and paved and. being connected with the county roads. It cannot fail to be come a popular street. Already it Is lined with many costly and beautiful homes. Will Fill All Streets. Practically all streets in the low ground, or warehouse territoryt be tween Union avenue And the Wil lamette River, are to be filled -with solid embankments during tbe year. Resolutions covering these streets have passed through the Council, under the guidance of Councilman Kellaher. who sometime ago started this movement for replacing all derated roadways with embankments. These streets will be filled either by dredger or by dump cars, but probably by the former. The 'experience of property owners on East Washington. East Morrison and. East Water streets Is that for every dollar they put Into the embank ments It has added two dollars to the value of the adjacent property, besides reduced the danger from Are raore than one-half. Without moving more than two or three .time xni remaining practically la the sane zeae at the foot of Xaxt Alder street tki Port of Port land dreger a as found eaough ar terial te, cever nearly three blocks be tween Xt AMer and XorrisoB streets ; with. &jU ajhV gravel a a arra C about five feet deep, and It is already demonstrated that material ran be taken from the Willamette River at lss than one-half of what It cot to fill East Washington and East Alder streets. Fill East Alder Street. East Alder street will likely b the first street to be filled with the dredger. However, the block owned by Mitchell. letvls & Stavcr on the south side of Eart Morrison street will be filled finM. Bulkheads will be built along East Alder street and the pipes laid so as to carry the material direct on that rtreet. All thf cross streets may b filled by the dredger direct from the. Willamette River ono after the other. A resolution also calls for the filling of East Second street, and If a franchise Is granted on East Third It will un doubtedly carry a provision for the. fijling of the street. The East Side Is more interested In having this street filled thon anything else. The filling of the streets and blocks up to tho basement floors In this ware house territory means that the value of the property -will be appreciated to the value of the West Side property similarly located. There now seem nothing In the way of the Improvement of East Stark with a solid fill to East Twelfth and pavement to East Twen tieth and finally to East Fortieth street to correspond with Hawthorne avenue. Both will be the link? In the drlvways connecting with the county roads. On Solid Gronnd. On the solid ground the Important Improvements are those of Union ave nue between East Oak and East Burn side, East' TBumslde street between Union avenue and East Tenth with bltullthlc pavement. Orand avenue also will be paved with bltullthlc as soon as the Grand avenue fill Is com pleted, which will be several months. It Is the Intention of the property owners to Improve Grand avenue be tween East Clay south to Holladay avenue north with bltullthic and ma.ee It the main business street on the East Side, but this cannot be done until the fill Is completed and the steel bridge over Sullivan's Gulch la erected. .
