On the other hand, | anything like a closely bullt pile re- talning wall reinforced by concrete would be an extremely expensive prop- osition, roughly estimated at $20,000., The beach front covers abopt 2,000 feet ' and $16 a foot is considered a low fig- ! ure for building a permanent bulkhead end concrete wall. The park commissioners intend to consult expert advice as to the best method of protecting the beach front| against the ravages of the elements| and later will make public the result) of their investigation in this line. It is considered out of the question for the city to assume the entire bur- den of cost for anything more than a temporary cleaning up of the place. If the cottage owners, to protect their property from' the inroads of the sea, can agree upon adequate plans of im- provement, it is expected that the city would stand part of the expense.
