MAIN
STREET-CRISES & RESTORATION
PAGE

ALL OUT COMMUNITY WORK DAYS WERE HELD. All
ages came, armed with shovels, brooms, hammers, nails, ladders, paint scrappers
& brushes,
Farmers came with heavy equipment—tractors, scoops, post hole
diggers, stock trucks, end loaders, and bulldozers. More than 40 loads of debris
& riff raff were hauled out of Main street.
Eyesore lots filled with debris were transformed into a magical
recreational-park complex right in
the heart of downtown Melrose.
BEFORE | AFTER | |
Volunteers shoveled out the debris inside the buildings, replaced windows & doors, cleaned & scrubbed the buildings, & painted every store.
