| 354.1 | What's going into Woolworth's then? | ULTRA::DONAHUE | OH! Do you still work here? | Thu Feb 13 1992 11:58 | 5 |
| Well, it looks like CVS will be taking over the Sokoloff Building.
This leaves me to wonder what will happen with the old Woolworths.
Boy! It sure seems funny seeing that store empty!!

| 354.3 | A shame to see them tear down all those bricks | PRNSYS::LOMICKAJ | Jeffrey A. Lomicka | Wed Sep 02 1992 14:34 | 2 |
| Too bad - I thought it was the nicest looking building in all the
downtown shopping area. I hope they don't totally ruin it.

| 354.5 | Facade comments | SENIOR::IGNACHUCK | Native Maynardian | Wed Sep 02 1992 22:53 | 13 |
| Regarding the brick facade, I agree with Alice.
While I like brickwork, I was never real sure that the bricks in
the Sokoloff Building were placed in a manner that would compliment the
adjacent architecture of the Nason Street retail environment. It
is my hope that CVS will find a way to blend in some of the brickwork
while restoring the facade to better fit the character and charm of
Nason Street.
Aside to the Moderators: Notice how I carefully worded my remarks
to comply to Notesfile standards?

| I'll agree with the last couple - while Maynard doesn't have any real marvels
of architecture downtown, it does have a bit of a character that building never
fit into.
Regarding facades, the ex-Woolworth building could look a whole lot nicer
easily if the current owners would fix up more than what's going to be
occupied by the video place. The second-floor windows, etc.

| it appears that the CVS construction will leave most of the facade
intact. it looks as if they have bricked up the former entrance in
favor of creating a new side entrance.

CVS is now open - it's located next to the Outdoor Store. I'm real
happy they are here.
