ALLEYS DISAPPEAR IN NAME
Cherry Way and Strawberry Way Are Now Proposed.
Cherry way!
Strawberry way!
Alleys no more, if this proposition goes through.
At a meeting last night the councilmanic committee on surveys affirmatively recommended ordinances to change the names of Cherry alley to Cherry way and Strawberry alley to Strawberry way their entire lengths.
It is proposed, as far as possible, to do away with the alleys of the city. In Harrisburg nearly all the alleys are avenues.
