Seattle May 12th 1892
To the Honorable Board of Public
Works of the City of Seattle:-

We the undersigned owners, tax payers,
and residents, of and in the neighborhood
of B Street in the 4th Precinct of the
First Ward of this City, humbly petition
your Hon Body to open said Street B
from 12th Street to Grant Street Bridge
and have it made passable for
foot passengers and teams: at the city's
expense:-

We would
call the attention of your Hon body
to the following facts:-

The said B Street
has a bridge connecting 10th Street
with Grant Street Bridge and is the
only public connection between
Dearborn Street and the Bayview Brewery
and necessarily used greatly as a
connecting point with the Grant Street
Electric Railway, and if this petition
is granted will be a most convenient
inlet and outlet for all persons between
the said points as far up as 14th Street.

12th Street is planked to B and would make
a most desirable connection.
For these and many other urgent reasons
we humbly request the granting of this petition
E [H?] Smith
John H. Park.
