Blueprints and tracings of railroad grade crossing eliminations, [ca. 1900-1906]

The series consists of blueprints and tracings of maps and plans relating to projects, paid for by state government bond issues, for railroad grade crossing eliminations. The State Comptroller's powers included investing state funds, borrowing money on state credit, and examining municipal fiscal reports. The Comptroller also had extensive oversight of state infrastructure planning and financing. These records were probably copies sent to the comptroller's office for review.
