This tentative plan was developed by Mr. Alfred Hopkins, Architect,
along lines suggested by Superintendent Frank Moore, of the New
Jersey State Reformatory at Rahway. It provides for three general
classifications: An Administration and Custodial Group, an Agricultural
Group and an Industrial Group; the various departments of the
institution being connected by a covered passageway. Mr. Hopkins
remarks: “While this plan is only in the nature of a preliminary
sketch, it is interesting in showing that a practical prison man is
quite willing to get away from the old idea of supervision which
established the radiating plan and the long type of cell block.”
