The foundations of these buildings are now completed, and the
works in connection with the superstructure are now well in hand.
NEW STREET FROM WHITEHALL TO THE VICTORIA
EMBANKMENT.
Plan for a proposed street, 60 feet wide, from Whitehall to the
Thames Embankment, to be known as Horse Guards' Avenue, have
been deposited with, and conditionally approved by, your Vestry.
The street will be jointly in this Parish and the Parish of St. Margaret,
Westminster. The work has not yet been commenced.
IMPROVEMENTS.
CHANDOS STREET.
The owner of Nos. 45 & 46, Chandos Street, has recently, by
agreement with the Vestry, acquired a vacant area in Taylor's
Buildings (for some time occupied by the Vestry) for the purposes
of enlarging his premises. A condition was imposed by the Vestry
that the walls of the new buildings be faced with white glazed
bricks. This is being done, and the improvement is one greatly to
be desired in all narrow courts within the parish, as tending to more
efficient sanitation.
