This book is a report on the fiscal year 1895 operations of the Engineer Department of the District of Columbia. The author's detailed report provides insight into the scope of this department as of the 1890s, through a breakdown of its responsibilities and maintenance of the District's streets and avenues. Statistics and tables illustrating the costs of maintaining and improving roadways and alleys, as well as the amounts spent on new projects, are included. Additionally, the author outlines the challenges faced by the department, including the impact of legislation that shifted the cost of water mains and sewers from property owners to the government, and the subsequent diversion of funds from other projects.
