We, the undersigned residents and property-owners of south Seattle, petition your honorable body, for a road way, 24 feet wide, to be built on piles, adjacent to and adjoining the new Grant Street Electric Railway: commencing where the electric road leaves Grant Street Bridge, to join the land at south Seattle. The road to be about seven hundred feet long. The cost would be about the same as the re-boarding and re-plankeing of the present road, and also will escape two dangerous crossings.
