March 2011: Concrete ideas
When Colleen Beights decided to renovate the kitchen of her 19th-century farmhouse on Old Trail golf course—literally, the course was built around the centuries-old structure—everyone thought she was crazy. But, for the freelance interior designer, it was hard to imagine dreaming up anything in the space, be it a family meal or a creative thought. […]

Mayor rededicates Downtown Mall; Brick Watch in attendance
Still no public recognition for Brick Watch, but that’s OK. Friday wasn’t about us – it was about our beautiful Mall.
We’d like to thank the Brickademy…
You may not believe it, but you’ll be pretty happy for us anyway. Trust.
Council voices approval, snubs Brick Watch
Last night, as we said they would, City Council met to review the Mall rebricking project. Here’s what we came away with.
Day 11: Dust in me
Mornin’, bricksters! Whether it’s a good morning is a different topic. Brick Watch was set to get a cup of coffee before work today but was nearly deterred by a looming cloud of dust at the west 200 block.
Day eight: Project still on time
Good morning, fellow brick watchers! The sun is shining, the air is crisp, and the bricks are still coming up one by one.
Day five: Updates, shout-outs, fun facts, oh my!
So many things to share with you about bricks, so little reason to devote an entire blog post to each of them.
Day four: Crews back in action
“So far so good,†says Debbie Brewer, who works at The Mole Hole. “They’re doing such a good job, the way they’re doing it. Block by block.â€
UPDATE: Day three: Weather delays demolition
Because of today’s rain, progress on the rebricking has slowed.
Day two: Free parking!
There may be a whole slew of walking area blocked off for construction (the 200 block on the west end, the 100 and 300 blocks on the east end)
