Text Appearing After Image:
November ii, 1905.) STREET RAILWAY JOURNAL. 875 yds. of earth excavation, 5000 cu. yds. of rock excavation and3500 cu. yds. of concrete. The Yonkers power station is built entirely on land underwater at a point where the main line of the Hudson divisionruns along the bank of the Hudson River, with only a rip-rapped slope outside of the tracks. The land on the other sideof the tracks rises abruptly and is valuable for residentialpurposes. On the site selected for the power station, the water runs-from a depth of 8 ft. near the shore to 16 ft. at the outer end,the bottom being sand and gravel. As the first step in con-struction, the piles forming the foundation, spaced in general3 ft. apart under walls, piers and machinery, and somewhatfurther apart under the floor, were driven to refusal.
