Architect Warren '8. Briggs Hits
Plensfor the Work Practi-
cally Completed
Architcst Warren R. Briggs. of‘Tiriti~
gcport has about completed the plans
for the county jail. There are u few
details to be fixed up before. the plans
will be ready to submit to the sello-
tors and representatives for their ap~
proval.
Seventy-eight New Cells. .
The plans provide for an entirely
new building that will carry three
tiers of cells. 26 in a tier. thirteen on
a side or 78 all told. This addition
will afford all the additional cell room
required for many years. linens there
should be a. marked growth in the
criminal class.
Modern Construction. ‘
The building will be a brick and
will have all the modern arrangements
and special provisions will be made
for lighting anti heating while the sani-
tary arrangements will be as near per-
fect as possible. The building is to be
set out from all the others, so that
there will be plenty of light-on all
sides. A covered bridge will connect
it with other parts of the jail.
For Short Term Prisoners,
The building and the cells will not
be quite so strongly constructed as the
last. addition to thoijail, as that was
made to hold bound over prisoners and
everything was made burglar proof.
The, arrangement. in this addition will
be the usual cells for short time offen-
ders. ‘
Enlarged Workshop.
in addition to this new building
plans will be prepared for a greatly
enlarged workshop. Part of the old
shop will be torn down and when the
new is finished it will be fully twice
as large as the old one. and it will be
more strongly protected. .
Practically New Boiler Room.
lastly there will be practically a
new boiler room. The old boilers have
about seethheir best days and new
ones will soon be necessary. The new
boilers must also be larger and there
must be more of them to warm the
new buildings.
will require a. new cillmneY.
plans include this change. It is thought
that. the entire cost of the improve
ments will be in the neighborhoods of
$75,000 or 880.000 .
