Haynes jewelry es tablishment will move soon from No. 37 to No. 49 Whitehall street. The firm has renovated the latter place and Mr. Haynes has carried out many ideas of the jewelry business gained on trips abroad. Under the old lease this concern was paying $4,000 a year rental, but the owner of No. 37 White hall. A. B. Steele, asked $12,000. Un able to reach a compromise at $8,000 the jewelry concern announced that it would move. The change will take place about September 1. An up-to- date moving picture house, it is said, will occupy the old location. Peachtree Creek Plans. What can be done to reclaim or "renovate” Peachtree Creek? More than a hundred property owners would like to know. The County Commissioners have a plan to clear out the bed and remove driftwood from the banks. This, they believe, will prevent to a large extent the present overflow in the rainy season, and keep the low places free from standing water. Mosquitoes won’t have a chance, and as for the sewage of former days it has been largely removed by the erection of the Peach tree Creek disposal plant. Some time ago the sugestion was made that the creek be bridged over for a considerable distance. This plan met opposition from Eretus Riv ers, who declared that the city and the county had so few streams of size that they should be left exposed to view. The main permanent trouble with Peachtree Creek seems to be that it is muddy rather than clear. Were it a stream of sparkling water rather than a ditch carrying off Georgia red clay its possibilities would be unlim ited. If it were a good stream in this sense the lowlands that now border it could be turned into attractive park spaces for present and future generations. Spring Street Improvement. Sooner or later there is going to be a big improvement on Spring street to make it as much as possible a help to Peachtree. The proposition to ex tend Spring northward to Brookwood has already been announced. It rests where many other good propositions rest, to be revived later when the need becomes greater than it is at present. Now comes the suggestion that Spring street be turned slightly from its course as it strikes Carnegie way —that a slice be cut from the north east corner of Cain street (the Gov ernor's Mansion lot) and Spring street be connected up with Cone street, which now ends at Carnegie way, and extended across the rail road tracks by way of a concrete via duct. Cone street ends on the south at Marietta street and it is suggested that the street be continued. The viaduct would go straight until the tracks were crossed and then curve slightly to the left, or about due south, and land on Madison avenue, to serve the entire Terminal Station district. This arrangement, it is pointed out, would make it possible for the via duct to pass safely to the east of the W. & A. freight depot, and It would put a leading thoroughfare one block closer to the retail district than a viaduct which jumped from the foot of the present Spring street. Not only that, but a first-class, straight- line thoroughfare would be opened up for traffic that would otherwise use Peachtree, and travelers using the Terminal Station could reach their North Side homes much more quick ly than by the circuitous route that it is now necessary to travel.
