Along the north side of this 100 ft. street, which would be
a broadening of Poinier Street, we would recommend the erec-
tion of a building, 4 stories in height, to be used on the ground
floor for auction rooms, where produce would be sold by sample
only, the remaining space being left -to commission merchants.
A large open space in the center of the building, running from
north to south, would allow free access of the commission
merchants' wagons and trucks to the elevators and lifts by which
surplus produce could be taken up to the cold storage rooms
on the third and fourth floors. The second floor would be
occupied bv the offices of the administration and by commission
merchants' private offices. As this building, which is about
200x400 ft., would not provide sufficient space for all the com-
mission merchants, we would recommend the erection of one
or two story buildings, 100 ft. deep, on several of the surround-
ing streets, with the intent that they should be rented to com-
mission merchants.
