Construction Progressing On New
Municipal Building For Caldwell
10000 Bricks
Contributed BY
Ava Brick 20.

Construction plans for the
new municipal building have
changed slightly from the orr
ginal specifications.
Since it was decided this week
to use the old garage building
for storage purposes and con-
struct a new front with brick
veneer, a change was also made
to face the new municipal build
ing with brick instead of the
natural stone as originally
planned.
The change was made in order
that all three units to be located
on the village property on West
street, including the municipal
building, the fire department
building, and the garage, would
have a similar look with
brick.
Plans now specify that all
buildings will be brick veneer.
