Senior Center Progress

Concrete is being poured for the foundation of the new senior center and condo complex.


The building will have a new senior center on the ground floor and condos on three upper floors.

At her monthly meeting Tuesday with seniors, Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs said the Senior Center building committee has asked for modifications in the plans, such as an extra bathroom stall and sink, which the developer has agreed to provide.


The current Senior Center is in leased space at 305 East Front Street and the new building will be erected at 400 East Front Street.

Meanwhile, the old center building, which spans a city block and also includes a police mini-station and governmental offices, has had a face-lift.

A new tenant is a spiritual center that promises relief from all sorts of ailments.

The downtown is constantly changing. Take a walk and see what you think.
