Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Public Printer: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1895 The additions made to the office during the past year, under the direction of the Joint Committee on Printing, afford better-lighted and more healthful accommodations to some of the divisions. The result fully justifies the. Moderate expenditure, and is an excellent argument in favor of the further relief demanded in the interest Of safety to employees and the more prompt, skillful, and economical execution of the public printing. The building now being erected, under the direction of the Chief Engineer of the Army, by authority of Congress, upon the stable lot west of the main buildings will probably not be ready for occupancy until the coming summer. There are seven floors in this building, each 275 by 169 feet in the clear, making square feet Of floor Space in all. This building, when occupied in part by necessary elevators and staircases, will, I fear, be of little value except for storage purposes. It will have no entrance at the street level, and not one of its floors is on the same level with the adjoining floors of the main buildings. Its two lower floors will require constant lighting by artificial means, and its erection has deprived some of the divisions in the main buildings of daylight and limited the means Of ventilation.
