Chairman Raymond will appoint the
members of these committees in a day
or two.
One of the features of last night's
meeting was the presentation to the
committee of a plan arranged by the
‘Rev. Dr. Charles S. Macfarland for the
grouping of several public buildings
in a manner that would beautify the
city. and so arranged that they would
command the admiration of the resi-
dents of the city and their guests. A
cut of the plan proposed by Dr. Mac-
farland is shown in this article. The
city hall and grounds would extend on
North Main street, from Pine street to
Ann street, while on the opposite side
of the street, on the site of the pres«
ent Nash plumbing establishment
would be the Carnegie library. Dr.
Macfarisnd also provides in his plan‘
for some future time, space for a
Young Men's Christian Association
and Young Women's Christian Asso‘.
elation buildings, adjacent to the li~
brar‘y building. Dr. Macfarland has
been working on the municipal-beauti-
ful plan for some time.
Dr. Mscfarland's plan was presenb
ed to the meeting by Former Mayor
Mortimer it. Use. Secretary Gnome
I-I. Vosburgh read the letter from Dr.
Macfsrland, which was as follows:
,. June fl. 1908.
To the Committee for the Proposed
City Hall, South Norwalk,§Conn.
Dear Slrs: I trust it may not be
considered an intrusion. if I. suggest
to your committee a plan which we
sented itself to my mind before I had
been in South Norwal twenty-four
hours. I immedibtely n ticed the ab-
sence of any kind of a central public
square. I do not see any. opportunity
for such a central place. encept the
one which I beg leave to suggest to
you.
I present this matter to your com-
mitte. because the city hall would an
proprlatoly be the central figure of any
such plan. as that which I propose.
It is. of course. universally recog-
nised that in the making of a city the
grouping of public buildings is neces-
sary to effectiveness and that when
such buildings are scattered about
they lose sueh.éffectlveness.
As I have said. I do not see any
ether place in South Norwaik for such
a proposed grou ng of public build-
ings. The spotwhioh I suggest is
readily sceesstllleMs about» as near
as could be to both the geographical
center and the center of population.

it does not seem to me that the
plan is wanting in utility slid it could
certainly be carried out with great
effective as and beauty. Radiating
from this center woilid be two attrac-
tive thoroughfares; namely. West
street. and especially our bcsutifui
West avenue, extending out from it.
I suggest this to your committee.
that will depend ll lou your action. but
also many other lugs. You have in
your hands the initiative with regard
to all our future public buildings. Un-
less the city hall is placed in such a
situation as this, it will forbid any
such effective grouping of public
buildings as is necessary to impres-
siveness and attractiveness. It will
mean in all probability that all our
public buildings will be scattered
about without regard to the general
attractiveness of the city.
With these suggestions I beg leave
to hand you this plan. if your com‘
mittee should care to, consider it. i
might request the privilege. at some
appropriate time, of appearing before
you with regard to it.
Respectfully yours.
CHARLES S. MACF‘ARIAND.
Dr. Macfarlaud had also provided a
profile map of the plan, which was
looked over with much interest'by the
committee.
