The new west line of the Avenue will run there, forming the easterly side of this building plot. The partially demolished 6-story structures shown there front on West Houston Street. They will remain. Through the center is Congress Street, a short thoroughfare extending south of West Houston to King Street. This is to be included in the new thoroughfare.
