As a builder and maintainer of good roads, Staten Island stands pre-eminently in the foreground. Under the provisions of a special law of 1890 (chapter 555), 120.0 miles of improved roads have been completed, and there is still under contract about five miles more. which will be constructed during the year 1899. The roads thus far constructed are of the Telfordmacadam and macadam classes, more especially of the latter. The mileage of roads has been fairly wel divided among the five towns. The county has issued bonds to pay for this improved road system to the amount of $1,215,000, and the cost of cleaning, sprinkling, patching and repairing of roads, bridges and culverts is about $90,000 per annum. The roads are constructed and maintained under the personal supervision of Henry P. Morrison, Deputy Commissioner and Chief Engineer of the Borough of Richmond. The entire mileage of roads is stationed off in fifty foot lengths, and is daily patrolled by inspectors. The towns of Northfield, Middletown, Southfield (chapter 686, Laws 1892) and Westfield (chapter 414, Laws 1897), now known as the Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth Wards respectively, made arrangements, while under the old County govmiles of macadam roads, which are now in course ernment, for the construction of about forty-four of construction, and the town of Southfield also provided for the building of a boulevard, to run About half parallel with the shore for 61⁄2 miles. Staten of this boulevard is practically completed. Island has but few public parks. Stapleton and Port Richmond each has one. CHARITABLE SOCIETIES AND INSTITUTIONS BROOKLYN.
