Anothersuggested location for an Auditorium is the southeast corner of the plaza wherethis edifice should be developed in a similar architectural spirit to the Improve-ment building. With whatever buildings the plaza at Ninth Street should besurrounded, it is essential that the treatment of the Improvement building berepeated. Further, as indicated above, the building line surrounding the plazashould be a contiuation of the circumference of which the face of the arcadeof the Improvement building forms an arc. The curb line and sidewalk should. MMl^ HOSPITAL GROUP TO FACE NINTH STREET, CLARKDALE, ARIZONAHerdina: & P>oyd, Architects be brought back to correspond with this line. This is essential not only for theeffect of symmetry and beauty but to provide traffic room and temporary park-ing space at this important center. The detailed plan further explains the treatment of the recreation area westof the new bridge approach to the public square and south of Main Street at thehead of the gully. At comparatively small expense the head of the gully canbe filled to form an excellent ball field. The planting of cottonwoods aroundthe lower end of the field and about the wading pool will add greatly to theattraction and comfort of this development.

The feasibility of this scheme is further increased by thefact thatthis gully is a natural drainage area, thus making the supply of wat
