REID'S BREWERY SITE.
The Reid's Brewery Site was purchased by the London County Council for
the erection of working class houses for 1,681 of the 3,700 persons of the working
class that would be displaced by the new Holborn to the Strand street (Kingsway).
The original scheme has been extended so as to include accommodation in all for
2,614 persons exclusive of shops. In my Annual Report for 1903, I gave details
of the buildings proposed to be erected on the site, and the work is now nearly
completed.
