Chas. E. Anderson Company Contractors N UMBER 22 Work on the new building at Elm Place tn be known as the Intermedi- ate School, is now well under way. the Charles B. Anderson Company of Chicago having it in charge. As explained in a previous issue of the Press the new building will immedi- ately adjoin the Primary Building on the north, utilizing in part the walls of that building. The westward- facing front of the building will stand out 25 feet beyond the west wall of the former building and extend north 148 feet. This will bring the building entirely across the nvine and its north wall will be well beyond the north margin of the ravine. The building will be supported upon piers sunlginto the ravine valley and con- crete north and south walls crossing the rgvine. These concrete outer walls will extend up out of the ra- vine ‘to the first floor level which is continuous with the basement floor of t primary building. Above this level he walls will be of red brick carriqd up tw0 stories 9' 'I‘hd~ boiler and coal room will occu-3 by 3 south ‘ py a1 sub-basement room made excavating a potion of the wall of the ravine extending beyond the northezwt corner of the primary building. The roof of the coal room‘ will becrme a part of the driveway.‘ The earth to be removed will be used to fill up the portion of the ravine valley crossed by the building. This. filling will not be readily apparent because of the construction along the xvi-st front. At each end of this front the wall of the building for at out a dis-‘ tance of 11 feet. and the distance be-- width of :29 feet stands projecting, gable-like fronts will be occupied by an open concrete bridge with a parapet. the bridge being about ‘00 feet long. This tween these bridge “ill be supported by a con: creté span hl'i ftft wide. Below the centrr of the arch win be a concrete pool on 11 level a little above the floor of the valley. The brook flowing to- wards the pool and the center of the arch will be made to disappear in a 10nduit under the pool but the water of the pool which is to be fed from the drip of the drinking fountains will slip oxer its edge into the con~ duit below. The apron and span of the bridge will practically screen off the filling under the building and as the brook reappears in its old channel on the other side of the build-; ing the ravine will seem undisturbed. 1 arms: COOGAN 1N To those who were privileged 1o! know him the death of John Fitch Curtis, on Friday last.
