TO ERECT BRICK
BLOCK ON Site OF
Old RESTAURANT

The work Of razing the wooden
frame building at the end of the
Kennebec bridge, fronting on Bridge
street, which was formerly occupied
as the Pine Tree Restaurant, has
been started by Earl Church. who
has purchased the building and the
land upon which it stands. Mr..
Church plans to construct a brick
block upon the site.
He stated Tuesday that he expect
ed the structure to be one of two
stories above the street. the first
floor to be occupied probably by two
stores and the upper story to be used
for offices. He declared that the
plans have not yet been drawn for
the building and that no contract has
been let, but that he is using spare
time to clear the way for the new
building which will be started as
soon as the frost is out of the ground.
Mr.. Church thought it probable that
one of the stores in this building
would be occupied by the Church
Electric Company, which now has
offices in the building Of the Nash
Printing Co.
