Beautifying Medical School Plant

Plans for beautifying the surroundings of the new Medical School property in Brookline have been accepted by the Medical School and the Street Department of the city of Boston. Starting from a terminal point in the Fenway near a small lagoon a new avenue in honor of the scientist Louis Pasteur will lead up to the middle of the Medical School quadrangle. This avenue will run through the centre of a parkway 120 feet wide, and will be shaded by a row of trees on each side. At the junction of the parkway with the quadrangle of the Medical School a suitable entrance will be constructed.

A large garage for automobiles has just been finished and is nearly ready for occupation. The grading within the grounds of the Medical School is practically all completed.

A new laboratory on Longwood avenue near the Medical School is being built by the Carnegie Institution of Washington for the study of Nutrition. It will be completed on February 1.

The building is three stories high and of brick construction with limestone trimmings, of the style known as Harvard brick, laid up with light joints and Flemish bonds. In the basement there is a machine room, supply rooms, a dining room and a kitchen. The second floor contains laboratories, offices, and a directors' room, and the third floor is made up of research rooms.
