I've always liked the apartment building on the corner of Willow and Ridgewood Streets, but for the past however many years it's been boarded up and falling apart. I thought for sure it would get torn down, since it seemed to be in such bad shape. When I drove by it a couple weeks ago, I was delighted to see that it's being fixed up.
I was in Waterbury last Sunday, visiting, and got to see a little of the city. I got to see some of the wonderful buildings, including that spot (I was staying with some friends further up on Willow).
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have stayed longer, and seen more of the city, but I guess I was lucky to arrive after the ice-storm and get out before the snow started.
Next time I'm raised a glass, I'll be remembering all the cool people I met in Boru's...
Hi, Just found your site. No longer in waterbury, left in 89/90.
ReplyDeleteThat building was on my paper route in the mid 70's, a great old building across from Dave's Superette.
Keep up the good work
