If : this Is done It will necessitate a fill of at least three feet at the cor ner of. Vancouver avenue and Broadway; the fill would also have to, extend in four directions: north and aouth on Vancouver avenua, and cast and west o Broadway. This-w,o.ullittt tho property owners to a very, heavy expense, but Mr. Schoenfeldt believes that the great benefit of an even grade will more than offset the cost for the improvement. Mr. Schoenfeldt stated yesterday that the Improvement had met with so much opposition that the petition might not be filed. He stated, however, that the regrading of Broadway at 'this point must come eventually, and that It Is just as weu to oo it now. By th Poet of the East CIS Business Hen's Clnb. Tim ARCHITECT.
