Roof Raised on Tradition Cornerstone

Posted on

Over 50 people attended the ‘roof raising’ of the Meeting Place structure onto the Tradition Cornerstone site located at the corner of Smith and Prescott Streets in December.  Lajos Heder, one of the artists from Harries + Heder Collaborative was on site to supervise the placing of the roof onto the structure. A Big Belly solar-powered trash receptacle and drinking fountain have since been installed at the site.  Work continues on the site and depending on the weather, plans are to have the site completed by the end of March 2014-just in time for Spring! This will be a great site for picnics, family gatherings, birthday parties, and a place to have lunch during your workday.  Look for an upcoming announcement for the ribbon cutting.  We hope to see you there!
