UTO THE HONORAB THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ST. PAUL
Gentlemen:-
The undersigned, G. Sommers & Co. , the owner of Lots one,
(1) , two (2) , three (3) , four (4) and eight (8) , Block three (3) , all
of Bass' Addition to the Town of St. Paul, respectfully requests your
Honorable Body to vacate the east two (2) feet of that part of the
alley in said Block lying between Lot two (2) and Lot seven ( 7) in
said Block, that is to say, so much of said alley as lies between
the east line of said Lot seven (7 ) produced across said alley and a
line west of,parallel with,,and two feet distant from said last men-
tioned line produced across said alley.
The reasons for the vacation are that the said alley is a
blind alley and runs into a street which heretofore has been vacated,
which street is further bounded on the east thereof by the freight
terminal yards of the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste Marie Railway
Company; that another petition of your petitioner for the vacation
of all that part of said alley lying between said Lot one (1) and
said Lot eight ( 8) is now pending before your Honorable Body, so that
if said last described part of said alley shall be vacated that - part
of said alley herein proposed to be vacated is unnecessary for pub-
lic _,-urposes. Your petitioner owns all the property on the north
side of said alley and said lot eight (8) on the south side thereof,
and all the remaining property on the south side of said alley is
owned by Louise "1. Fogg, whose consent to this vacation is hereto an-
nexed. Your petitioner desires to erect on said Lots one (1) , two ( 2)
and eight ( 8) a large warehouse, and to build a party wall on the
boundary line between said Lot eight (8) and said Lot seven (7) and to
continue said wall upon said line produced across said alley, and
your petitioner desires to use said pare of said alley herein pro-
posed to be vacated for and for the foundations of said wall and in
connection with its building plans. Said building proposed to be
constructed will cost in the neighborhood of two hundred thousand
/ollars 0200,000) .
Hereto attached and made a part hereof is a plat of said
-1-
Block three (3) and of the locality and of that portion of the alley •
in said Block proposed to be vacated.
Your petitioner further annexes hereto a consent on the
part of the owner of the remaining lots in said Block, namely: Lots
five (5) , six (6) and seven (7) to the vacation herein proposed.
':"lEREFORE YOUR PETITIONER prays that the said part of said
alley may be vacated according to law.
