              SUMMARY OF DESIGN COORDINATION
              FOR THE CANOPY ENCLOSURE OF THE
              MARKET SQUARE MEMORIAL PARK STAGE
              Borough of Marcus Hook - Delaware County, Pennsylvania

              June 14, 1996



              Introduction

              This report represents a summary of the design coordination efforts related to the Canopy
              Enclosure of the Stage at Market Square Memorial Park. The detailed design of the Bandshell
              type structure can now proceed. Two plans are enclosed for Bandshells provided by Cedar
              Forest Products Co., the same company which furnished the picnic pavilion/shelter that was
              constructed on the east side of the park in 1987.

              The open air park stage is used by performers throughout the summer at the Marcus Hook
              Summer Musical Festival and at various special events sponsored by the Borough in the spring
              and fall. The true value of the stage will be realized when it is enclosed by a bandshell to protect
              performers from the weather and to enhance sound quality.

              Existing Conditions and Facility Analysis

              The existing stage is elevated above grade by approximately 21 inches. Easy access is provided
              by four 10 foot wide steps on the west side of the stage. The stage orients to the large "green"
              on the east side where people of all ages can appreciate the performances. The rectangular
              elevated stage measures 24'-13/4" x 30'-11/2". It is surrounded by sidewalks that connect to the
              overall pedestrian circulation system of the park.

              Refer to Figure I., Location Map, for the approximate location of the elevated stage in the park.
              Refer to Figure 2., Existing Conditions and Facility Analysis Plan, for the dimensions and design
              considerations related to adding the bandshell to the existing stage.

             Canopy Plans

             After considering several alternative canopy enclosures including a tent like structure and a small
             scale custom designed replica of the Market Square Head House, the Borough Council chose the
             Bandshell provided by Cedar Forest Products Co. (CFPC) as the preferred canopy enclosure.
             A Bandshell from Appleton, Wisconsin was considered as a point of departure.

             Working with General Recreation, Inc. (GRI) of Newtown Square, Pa., two bandshell options were
             considered initially --Model P-1440 and Model P-1848. However, since neither of these options
             worked perfectly on the existing stage, a custom designed bandshell will be required. Until the
             time that exact engineering measurements and details are prepared during the next stage of
             design, G RI has f u mished a Bandshell Plan P-1 912 which has been reduced to 11 "xl 7" and
             enclosed as Figure 3.

             CFPC will furnish detailed working drawings with an actual order. The working drawings could
             then be included in an overall Project Manual which could be sent to prospective contractors for
             bidding purposes.

             MARKET GREEN MASTER PLAN
             Borough of Marcus Hook - Delaware County, Pennsylvania

             June 14, 1996



             Introduction

             Originally established as part of the "Old Market Square" in a charter of 1701, the Market Green
             represents a unique linear open space in the Borough of Marcus Hook, Delaware County,
             Pennsylvania. This Master Plan is part of an on-going redevelopment process aimed at improving
             the neighborhood amenities in the Market Square Redevelopment Area. Appendix A, the "Project
             Background" narrative provides an overview relative to the Market Square Redevelopment Area,
             Market Green, and Market Square Memorial Park.

             The Market Green, an island within Market Street, between 4th Street and 2nd Street, is the
             gateway to the Borough's riverfront along the Delaware River. Market Green, shown in the
             Location Map, Figure 1., creates an avenue or boulevard character typical to a Traditional
             Neighborhood of historic significance.

             The Borough of Marcus Hook has commissioned this Master Plan to protect and enhance this
             11green connection" to the Market Square Memorial Park which adjoins the River. The Master
             Plan has been developed to match the land's physical capability with a landscape development
             scheme for the future.


             The focus of the Market Green Master Plan is a careful analysis and documentation of existing
             conditions along the tree-lined "Avenue." Serious consideration has been given to the future use
             and appearance of the "green space" and its role in the redevelopment of the Market Square
             neighborhood.

             The final design solution for the Market Green proposes a historically appropriate conservation
             and adaptive reuse program. A financial analysis of the final design solution has been conducted
             to assist in the implementation and phasing of the Master Plan. Cost estimates have been
             prepared for all recommendations, as well as proposed phasing schemes and the prioritization
             of those phases.

             Overall, the Market Green Master Plan proposes improvements to a key focal point in the historic
             and aesthetic setting of the Borough of Marcus Hook.

             MARKET GREEN MASTER PLAN
             Borough of Marcus Hook - Delaware County, Pennsylvania

             June 14, 1996



             Existing Conditions

             The Market Green consists of two elongated grass plots containing 23 London Planetrees. The
             "Avenue" or "Boulevard" form of Market Green separates the directional traffic lanes of Market
             Street of southbound to the west, and northbound to the east. Market Green extends from 2nd
             Street to 4th Street in a uniform manner, except that a war memorial is located at one end section
             near 3rd Street.

             The London Planetrees, Platanus x acerifolia, which exist near the curbed edges of the two
             grassed islands are the remnants of a double row of tree plantings which once lined the open
             market along Market Street. Currently, gaps occur in the spacing of the remaining trees due to
             the removal of dead trees over the years. The existing trees are in varying stages of decline.

             The grass strips have been reseeded occasionally and contain a mix of turf grasses and typical
             broadleaf weeds. Considering the varying amounts of shade and competition from tree roots, the
             grass groundcover is functioning fairly well.

             The existing soil conditions were determined through soil test results from the Penn State
             University soil labs. In 1990, Penn State Extension Agents took four soil samples from the grass
             plots that comprise the Market Green. The soil tests indicated a soil pH of 7.8, an excessively
             alkaline condition. The alkaline pH level is detrimental to many plant species growth and,
             specifically, excessive for the optimum pH level for London Planetrees. The build-up of salts,
             particularly from the use of winter road salt applications, is considered the cause of the high pH.
             The soil tests also indicated excessively high levels of Calcium which would restrict the availability
             of Phosphorus, an essential macronutrient for plant growth. This imbalance of nutrients and soil
             pH explains the condition of decline which is evident in the London Planetrees in the Market
             Green.


             The buildings which flank Market Green to the east and west, consist primarily of residential
             dwellings and vacant spaces. Some areas have been cleared of former structures as part of the
             redevelopment process. Local commercial establishments, residential housing units, and a
             Church are among the existing building uses which form the two "street walls" of lower Market
             Green.


             Site Analysis

             The Market Green, oriented perpendicular to the nearby Delaware River, is on an approximate
             northwest to southeast axis. Located in the southern portion of Delaware County, the seasonal
             temperature range and overall macroclimate are representative of southeastern Pennsylvahiaand
             northern Newcastle County, Delaware.


                                                                3

              June 14, 1996


              Soil test results summarized in the Introduction indicate excessive levels of Calcium and an
              extreme alkaline soil pH in the grass plots of the Green. Penn State Cooperative Extension
              Agents have determined the poor soil conditions to be primarily the result of road salt
              accumulations. Excessive salt build-up is detrimental to plant growth and results in an underlying
              soil condition which is less than favorable for the maintenance of the existing trees. Considerable
              corrective measures are required to improve the soil conditions and create a favorable growing
              environment. Recommendations for actual soil treatments are incorporated in the Master
              Development Plan section of this report.

              The poor soil condition of the Market Green is due in part to the continual application of de-icing
              salts along Market Street during the winter. Plowed snow which is piled onto the Green contains
              the road salt residual from the street surface. Applications from the salt trucks also result in some
              road salt landing in the grass plots. Excessive salt build-up in the soil result in slower water
              drainage in the soil column, phosphorus deficiencies due to excessive calcium levels, and an
              imbalance to the soil pH. These factors all create conditions which limit favorable plant growth.
              Recommendations for road salt applications and other possible snow removal methods are
              incorporated into the Master Development Plan section of this report.

              The soil surface of the grass plots is higher than the curb which edges the Market Green. As a
              result, positive surface water drainage is achieved. The presence of a turfgrass cover and tree
              canopy greatly enhances the ability of the soil surface to retain rain water and limit surface water
              runoff.


              Spatial Analysis, Views Into and Out From the Site

              Figure 2., the Existing Conditions and Site Analysis Plan, which is attached, depicts the spatial
              qualities of the site through a series of photographs. Of particular note is the significant statement
              made by the trees to provide the "old shade" character to the space and to reinforce the "Avenue"
              appearance missing in typical suburban streetscapes.

              The intrinsic values of Market Green which are most noteworthy include:

                             the spatial attributes of the "Avenue" or "Boulevard" character, to reinforce the
                             gateway to the Delaware River;

                             the historical significance of the two tree-lined grass plots to help "anchor" the
                             head house space between Market Green and Market Square Memorial Park;

                             the simplicity of the open green space as a visual statement and relief in what is
                             a fairly dense neighborhood of buildings;


                                                                4

                            the scale of the space as a relatively small open space, typical in small towns
                            which were developed in America from the 1840's to 1940's;

                            the role of the Market Green in reinforcing the Traditional Neighborhood character
                            of the Market Square Redevelopment Area; and

                            the potential for Market Square to be conserved for its passive open space value,
                            with a minor adaptive reuse in the form of seating/rest areas.

             The Market Green, bounded on the east and west sides by the one way vehicular traffic lanes
             of Market Street, is flanked by existing sidewalks. The only accommodation for pedestrians on
             the Market Green itself, consists of a three and one-half (31/2) foot wide asphalt walkway crossing
             the grass plot near Market Lane. Although additional pedestrian walkways would reduce the
             amount of green in the two islands, opportunities exist for some expanded pedestrian features
             such as benches and bench pads.












              MARKET GREEN MASTER PLAN
              Borough of Marcus Hook - Delaware County, Pennsylvania

              June 14, 1996


              Master Development Plan

              Two Master Development Plans are attached. The Borough will have the choice to replant some
              or all of the trees, depending on the budget considerations.

              Figure 3., Master Development Plan'A', is a conservative plan which involves the addition of eight
              (8) London Plane trees to "fill-in" the missing canopy. It also depicts crosswalks leading to new
              sidewalk paver areas and a Market Square Head House memorial plaza and plaque. The overall
              notion of the Plan is to maintain the peaceful, quiet and passive nature of the Market Green to
              acknowledge its historical significance.

              Master Development Plan '13% Figure 4., is also focused on the passive attributes of the Market
              Green, However, rather than to rely on the existing trees to last, it promotes a complete
              replanting of 24 new Hackberry Trees. One cost estimate is for the new trees at a 3-31/2 inch
              caliper size, the other is for the new trees at 5-51/2 inch caliper.

              Both plans will involve curb cuts and replacements to sections of curbing which is broken or
              otherwise deteriorated. Although relatively common, the curbing serves to elevate the Market
              Green and distinguish the space from the adjoining streets.

              From a "big picture" standpoint, the preservation of the Market Green will help to mitigate adverse
              effects of non-point source water pollution from stormwater runoff. In other words, by maintaining
              the two grass plots and by adding new vegetative cover, positive infiltration of water will occur into
              the ground, and no additional non-point source pollutants will be introduced.

              Relative to street lights, the Market Green should continue to be illuminated by existing fighting
              on either side of Market Street. If benches are ever placed in Market Green, then low level
              security lighting could be added. The overall concept with street lighting is to retain the "quiet"
              wash of lighting from adjoining lights, to further reinforce the passive nature of the space.

              Cost data related to the two plans is provided on page 7.

     On June 5, 1995, the Borough of Marcus Hook executed a Grant Agreement with the Pennsylvania
     Department of Environmental Resources for the preparation of a master plan for the Market Green
     open space and design or selection of a canopy for the Market Square Memorial Park stage to be
     partially funded by a grant from the Coastal Zone Management Program. The grant agreement is
     effective from July 1, 1995 until September 30, 1996.

     MARKET SQUARE REDEVELOPMENT AREA

     Completion of the Market Green land development plan will provide a blueprint for the future
     landscaping of this unique open space. Both the "green" and Market Square Memorial Park are
     located within the Market Square Redevelopment Area. The redevelopment planning process was
     concluded in 1985 and the plan adopted in September of that year. The Market Square
     neighborhood displays historically significant architectural detailing and development patterns which
     make it desirable to current and future residents searching for affordable housing in a charming
     neighborhood. Through the implementation of the redevelopment plan the Borough has eliminated
     many non-conforming land uses and has completed plans for new housing development
     on reclaimed land. Critical to the redevelopment process is the continuing emphasis on improving
     neighborhood amenities, namely Market Square Memorial Park and Market Green. The park and
     other neighborhood improvements has represented a statement to residents, investors, and
     developers that the Borough government is strongly committed to restoring and improving the
     Market Square neighborhood as a residential area. The park has brought new life to the
     neighborhood and is a sense of pride for the entire community.

     Market Green


     The Market Green is a remnant of the 1701 "Old Market Square" which included properties facing
     on Market Street, 4th Street, Church Street and the Delaware River bank, as well as the open
     market area. This traditional m arket-waterfront-com m unity center retains its original layout with a
     number of 18th and 19th century structures reflecting its history.

     Residents of the area petitioned William Penn for the establishment of a local market, to be held in
     the long open area still visible today on Market Street. This area is referred to as the Market
     Green. The charter for the market was granted in 1701, one of only three (Chester and
     Philadelphia also obtained market charters) such privileges issued by the Proprietor, William Penn.
     Prior to 1800, a two-story market house was erected similar to Philadelphia's Head House. The
     second floor of the structure was demolished in 1869-1870 and the weekly trade in foods, goods
     and livestock gradually died out. What was left of the building succumbed to a fire in the 1870's.

    Market Square Memorial Park

    Market Square Memorial Park is the crown jewel of the Borough's park system. It is siWated along
    the banks of the Delaware River with outstanding views of the waterfront. Park lands were
    purchased and assembled in 1984 and 1985 and four phases of park development have occurred
    since 1986. Project costs have totalled $1.1 million and represents an investment of slightly over
    $420 per capita.

             Dear Bruce,

                   When Susan and I met with Mayor Jim Jackson and the Marcus Hook Shade Tree,
             Commission we agreed that, in addition to the survey of the Boro's street trees, we would collect
             soil samples of the area of the Sycamores at the foot of Market Street.

                   Enclosed are the test results from the Penn State University soil labs. As you can easily
             see, the underlying soil conditions are less than favorable for the maintenance of the existing trees,
             let alone the planting of new street trees.

                   Four soil samples were taken. Sample'A' [Field MHA] and sample'B' [I@IHBI were taken
             from actual planting sites,.corresponding with the two former planting holes on the south side of
             the planting area adjacent to 4th street.( the upper area). Sample 'C' [MHC] was taken from the
             same general area [ 6-7 sites throughout that upper planting area]. Sample V [MBD] was a
             random sampling from the lower planting area.

                   As you can readily see, the pH is excessively alkaline, caused by salt build-up The soil test
             recommends a pH of 6.5 for Sycamores. Therefore, our recommendation is taking an average pH
             reading, the application of 13/4 pounds of Sulfur per 100 square feet. That is a considerable
             dosage and it will take quite some time to begin to bring the pH down, but the excessive salt levels
             certainly indicate why the trees have died and replacements have not succeeded either. The
             excessive salt levels also explain the high Calcium levels. Additionally, there is little Phosphorus
             available, thus the recommendation of superphosphate [ 0-20-0] at a rate of 2 pounds per 100
             square feet. Because the general nutrition level is so poor, the application of 5-10-5 at a rate of 3
             pounds per 100 square feet has been made.

                   This is a lot of soil correction, at a considerable cost to your program. But as I am sure you
             know, without good soil, little can be expected to grow. We look forward to continued
             cooperation between our two organizations. Sincerely;
                                                       Sara Pilling@@

        1. To be most effective. all recommended limestone and/or fertilizer should be incorporated 6
             to 8 inches into the soil prior to planting.   If plants or crop is established. apply
             recommended materials to the surface and water area well.

        2. If 11 to 20 pounds of limestone are recommended. divide the amount by two and apply in
             two applications six months apart      If 21 or more pounds are recommended. divide the
            ,:rnount by three and make three applications at six month intervals.
        3.     3 or more pounds of MgS04 (Epsom salts) are recommended. divide. the amount by two
             and make separate applications at lour month intervals.     If an alternative magnesium source
             is usecL apply an amount equal to the equivalent of 10.5% Mg in MgS04:: only one application
             should be needed.

        4. Lime and fertilizer are recommended in pounds of material       per each 100 square feet of area to be
             treated.   Use the following conversions to convert from      pounds per

             100 square feet to other units or area sizes:

                          pounds per 100 sq. ft x 10 = pounds per          1000 sq. ft
                          pounds per 100 sq, ft x 435 = pounds per acre

        S. Lime and fertilizer are recommended in pounds of material       per each
             100 sq ft of area: for band length or number of spots (individual trees)


             that can be treated with the recommended amounts shown; use the following equations:

                          Band lenght in ft. = (100 sq. ft.) / (Band width in ft.)
                          Individual plants (spots) = (100 sq. ft) (area of circle)
                              area of circle in sq. ft. = 1.0 ft. dia. - 0.75 sq. ft.
                                                              1.5 ft dia. = 1.75 sq. ft
                                                              2.0 ft dia. = 3.00 sq. ft
                                                              3.0 ft dia. = 7.00 sq. ft

        6. Amount of sulfur needed to lower soil pH to        optimum level.

                Apply sulfur at the above rates for a   loam  soiL On heavier soils (silt loams) use one third more
                   than the amount shown. On lighter soils (sandy loams) use one-half of the amounts showm
                If aluminum or ferrous sulfate is used to lower pK multiply the above amounts by 2.5.          Follow
                   the same suggestions as above for soil types. If 4 or more pounds are needecL divide the
                   aimourit in half and make two applications six months apart

           Appendix C Street Tree Facts:

           Celtis occidentalis, Common Hackberry

           A hardy native tree species in the Ulmaceae (Elm) family which typically reaches
           mature heights of 40 to 60 feet. This native tree withstands variable soil pH conditions
           and moderately wet or very dry areas making it especially suitable for use in urban
           locations. Hackberry transplants easily as a balled and burlapped larger tree and
           performs well under adverse conditions. The mature crown of Hackberry consists of a
           broad top with ascending and arching branches, somewhat similar in outline to the
           American Elm. In early Fall, a small purple fruit ripens which is relished by birds and
           wildlife. In addition to the species, Celtis occidentalis is also available in the nursery
           industry in the form of improved cultivars and hybrids.

                  Celtis occidentalis 'Prairie Pride' is a rugged, compact form of Hackberry which
                  develops a uniform oval crown, reaching heights of 40 to 50 feet. Its leaves are
                  shiny, deep green, and leathery.

                  Celtis x occidentalis'Magnifica' is a hybrid Hackberry developed by Princeton
                  Nurseries which is faster-growing with larger, glossy dark-green leaves. This
                  hybrid tree is also very drought resistant, salt tolerant, and the roots withstand
                  compacted urban soils.

           Platanus x acerifolia'Bloodgood', Bloodgood London Planetree

           The recommended replacement tree to closely match the existing London Planetrees in
           the Market Green is its Bloodgood cultivar. The London Planetree is a large shade tree
           reaching 70 to 100 feet in height. It is very tolerant of urban conditions, heat, drought,
           and high pH soil conditions, and is easily transplanted and established. Its ultimate
           large size limits its suitability for street tree use. The straight hybrid of London
           Planetree (Platanus x acerifolia) has been over planted in many urban regions of the
           country because of its adaptability. As a result of this near monoculture status, many
           diseases have increased their impact on the extended London Planetree population.
           Cankerstain and Anthracnose are two serious diseases which can cause decline and
           eventual death of the trees.


           This 'Bloodgood' cultivar of the hybrid London Planetree (Platanus x acerifolia) exhibits
           greater resistance to the disease, Anthracnose, which often affects the closely related
