Burlington Streets: Lakeside Ave

Image

Date Created: 1945-12-05
Description: December 5, 1945. City of Burlington, Vermont, Street Department Lakeside Ave. Pavement Base Construction This view was taken from a point near the intersection of Central Ave. looking easterly toward the underpass. The new factory building just completed for the Blodgett Co. is shown with parking area base recently constructed between the street line and the building. Note the asphalt emulsion stabilized base which was mixed the previous day before taking this picture. Cold weather and frost conditions had frozen the base mixture on the left half of the street but the job was continued on the north half in spite of the low temperatures as the street had to be put in condition to receive traffic for the winter, this street being on a regular bus line. The job was continued by placing a 2 inch layer of crushed stone on this stabilized base and penetrating the same with asphalt emulsion and covering with concrete sand as a "blotter" for the winter and then opened to traffic. This project will be continued to completion in the spring by constructing an integral concrete curb and gutter on the south side of a 2 inch hot plant mix wearing surface over the entire pavement area. Note the asphalt distributor applying emulsion and the tractor and harrow mixing the base.

Burlington Streets: Institute Road

Image

Date Created: 1946-02-11
Description: February 11, 1946 Institute Road - Road Excavation and Street Widening Project This view was taken from a point on Institute Road near the gate leading to Bishop Hopkins Hall looking easterly toward North Ave. The rock excavation to be removed can be seen in the south portion of the highway. Note the rock also on the north side of the road which should be removed in order to develop the street for its full width. An appropriation of $2500.00 was made by the Board of Aldermen to pay for the cost of removing the rock excavation. The appropriation was made to the Park Department and the work is to be done by the Street Department. This appropriation covers only the estimated cost of rock excavation and depositing this extra rock for fill on the shoulder of the road where the street is to be widened by filling. An appropriation will have to be made later if this work is to be done.
