be located at the far end of
the long pier. The covered

show bath houses, shower
rooms and lockers at the
shore end of the pier, with
two separate units, dividing
by a board walk, into
quarters for men and
women, those for men on
one side and for women on
the other. Just in front of

the river will be an open-air
porch with benches lining
'Jm rail The board walk,
ten feet in width, will be
