The erection of the Municipal Building has been carried on under the supervis- fon of Commissioner of Bridges, Arthur J. O'Keefe, and his engineer in charge, F. W. Perry. The interior Gnishing is just now being begun. ‘When the ground was broken for this edifice, each city department was re- quested to determine just how much floor space would be needed for busi- ness. The demand was in excess by many thousands of aquare feet of the actual floor area the building contained. ‘Then the architects were given the con- udy the matter scientifically.
