Reesman of Â¥a to artive at a satisfactory conclusion, but this viaduct should be widened, as a large number of vehicles pass through it from Green Bay Road and traffic is likely to increase rather than diminish. Similariy the viaduct on Sheridan place should be widened. This is a summer. traffic. We trust the city officials will realâ€" ize the importance of widening this street and start the "ball rolling." When we ask city officials why someâ€" thing isn‘t done to widen South Green Bay, we are told that the people livâ€" ing on that street don‘t want it widâ€" ened. We can hardly believe this, beâ€" cause it is recognized everywhere nowndays that wide through streets are not only necessary to the welfare of the city but to the safety of its citizens as well. We are sure that when the people of that street know the facts they will be unanimously in favor of* widening. Another matter which, it is beâ€" lieved, should have immediate attenâ€" tion is the widening of the Northâ€" western railroad viaduct at Rloom street. It is understood that the city cfficials are taking up this matter row one. With the new McCormick boulevard ending at our very door it is absolutely necessary that Green Eay road be widened at once. It is the only straight through street in Nighland Park. It runs from one end of our city to the other without a turn or bend. Sheridan road canâ€" not possible take care of the heavy This means that a bottle neck will be formed at the very borders of ilighiand Park and traffic in Green Pay Road in this city north from the county line will be greatly conâ€" rsted and made extremely dangerâ€" ous. The Press does not believe that property owners on South Green Bay «Road will be opposed to the ‘videning of this thoroughfare if they are in possession of all the facts in ‘he matter and realize how important i is not only to the progress of the city but to the welfare of those who live on this_strect themselves. ‘ Large cities like Chicago spending millions of dollars in widening their: streets because they consider a wide street much more safe than a narâ€" view of selling the present site and building and applying the proceeds also to the new one. The $100,000 library site bonds are to be used for purchase of a new site for the pubâ€" lie library. 5 Other Improvements Urgent And while the city administration and the people of the city generally wre interested in these improvement propositions, the Press feels that it i="an opportune time to suggest that South Green Bay road also is urgent,} The new McCormick boulevard which} is being planned in Cook county will} come up through Glencoe at a width‘ of at lcast 40 feet, it is understood Pnd will connect with Green Bay Rd., just south of our city limits. As previously explained the bond issue propositions include $100,000 for corporate purposes to pay off public benefits now assessed against the city for public improvements, which includes the city‘s share under special assessment proceedings. anced by the issue of bonds, if these are approved by the voters at the eiection of March 10.
