Despite the fact that the Cambridge City Council last spring refused the proposal of Mayor Russell to buy steam from the University, the city has decided to make use of the Harvard heating tunnels for all city buildings in the vicinity of Memorial Hall. At present a tunnel is being built from the University tunnel near Memorial Hall to the site of the new Rindge Technical School, and upon the completion of the new fire station there will also be a connection to that building.
Rindge will have its own meters and will pay its portion of the bill to Harvard without any profit on the part of the University.
