The Number of Milea of Street Pbtc- .Bent Showi Tbelr Material De velopment Some Interesting- Fisrnrea. There is no surer way of determin ing the growth of an American mu nicipality in respect of material devel opment than by comparing the relation which its paved streets bear to its un paved. The civil engineer is an impor-, tant functionary in the foundation of municipal corporations in the United States, and especially in such of them as are in the region west of the Alle ghanies. Hut street pavements are ex pensive, and it is not until a city is opulent eiimigh to enjoy the l,uxury of a big municipal debt and a large credit that the question of modern and im-. proved pavements secures adequate at tention. In Boston, for instance, one of the old cities, there are 312 miles of paved and 140 miles of unpaved streets. In Baltimore-there are 306 miles of paved and only 47 miles of unpaved streets. In Philadelphia there are 942 miles of paved and 433 miles of unpaved streets. But in the newer cities of the country this condition is reversed, and Chicago, which has 1,000 miles of paved, has 1,500 miles of unpaved streets. In St. Louis the number of miles' of paved streets is 370 and of unpaved 500. In Omaha there areS2 miles of paved treets and 450 miles of unpaved. In Minneapolis, a city which is growing rapidly in population, there are' 98 miles of paved and 800 miles of un paved streets. In Brooklyn there are 515 miles of paved and 999.5 miles of unpaved streets. The pavement of Brooklyn streets, which is now a sub ject of local grievance and complaint, shows a certain backwardness, which it is expected the Greater New York project will do away with by making available the municipal credit neces sary for the issuance of bonds for new pavements. At the present time more than 200 miles of Brooklyn streets more than dne-half the whole length of paved streets have the primitive, unsatisfactory and unpopular cobble stones. There are 110 miles of streets paved with granite, 60 miles, especial ly in the neighborhood of the parks and parkways, macadamized; 44 miles paved with Belgium blocks, 40 miles with asphalt, and one mile with a still more primitive method, practically un linpwn to New York, though quite fa miliar in Philadelphia brick pave ments. A meeting was held in the annexed district of Brooklyn last week for the purpose of agitating the ques tion of the improvement of the pave ments of that city, but in this respect, as in 'some others, Brooklyn, for ob vious reasons, is much, behind New York. . In this city there are no streets paved with brick, and there is less than one-quarter of a mile of cobblestone pavement in all. This is to be found in one of the streets of the Ninth ward. There is a small section of town a par tion of one street paved with wood, but wooden pavements have long ago been voted a failure in practical opera tion in New York. The city has 185 miles of granite, 142 miles of macad amized roads and streets, 94 miles of asphalt, and 90 miles of Belgium pave ment. The city of Philadelphia, much larger territorially than New York, has 331 miles of Belgium block pavement, 172 of asphalt, 152 macadam, 76 of yetri fled brick, 11 of granolithic, three of slag, and nearly 200 of colbblestone. The growth of an American city is shown clearly by the number of miles of improved pavement in streets, and it is believed by public works officials that after January 1, 1898, there will be a visible improvement in all the pave ments 'of the city outside of its present boundaries.
