TOWN HALL NEWS

January 27, 1864
In the case of the town hall, your humble correspondent was able to obtain an interview with a representative of Hephaestus' Iron Mongering, the business that so charitably offered to rebuild the recently destroyed town hall.
Due to limits in space, we are sadly unable to post the whole interview, therefore we have summarized the interview as follows:


The company plans to use spare resources from their own recent construction as well as local stone. The plan is to build a two or three story stone building that will provide space for both the mayor's residence as well as the adimnistration. In addition, a bank will most likely be situated on the ground floor. The company hopes that this new building will reflect the start of a new time of prosperity for the town.
Concerns that the company is using this project to bring the town government into a position where it is faced with a debt that it cannot repay have been brushed away by the company, saying that the company will not face huge costs from the construction due to the use of already available material.
A blueprint of the building has been made available, which will be published in the next Herald.
