Broad Street Subway

Item Info

Item No: pdcc01016
Title: Broad Street Subway
Media Type: Photographic Prints
Source: Print and Picture Collection
Notes:

Reproduction of a photograph showing the Broad Street Subway under construction. Workers are shown by the newly-laid track. Companion text reads: This tunnel is directly beneath shaft No. 11, north of Huntingdon street. The new Broad Street Subway now under construction is without doubt one of the most necessary city improvements. The direct effect on property values will result in a greatly increased revenue to the city, more than enough to cover the interest on the bond issue necessitated by this work.

Clipping from an unidentified newspaper.
