Because of the wholesaling and industrial nature - there is a very acute problem of on-street loading. The extent of the garment Industry In terms of geographical coverage has diminished over time and it is open to question whether this Is due to the pressure of the competing land uses around it, or a general decline in the garment market. The area is not very lively during the day and Is very dull at night. There is little pedestrian activity. 5. LEATHER AND OTHER WHOLESALING AREA This area ly...ing adjacent to the South Station and the future terminus of the Massachusetts Turnpike is advantageously located in terms of rail and truck access. The majority of buildings in the area are loft buildings with about half being pre-1890 non-f irepro* f buildings and the remainder a mix of 5-8 story 1890- 1920 fireproof loft buildings and 8-14 story 1920-1940 fireproof loft buildings. This area is completely dead at night in terms of pedestrian activity or night life. It has been cut off from the retail core area, the garment district, and the Chinese Commercial area by the construction of the Central Artery.
