West Bend Community Memorial Library


Ground breaking ceremony	Children young and old join in the fun	West Bend dignitaries slinging mud


Heaps of fun	Property on the NE corner of Poplar and Seventh	View of the same property with library visible in background


NE corner of Poplar and Seventh after houses demolished	NE corner of Poplar and Seventh being graded	The site is now level


The first concrete is poured	View from the corner of Sixth and Poplar	Foundations being poured


Trenches are back filled	Walls start to appear	West wall goes higher


West wall goes higher still	Exacvation at SE corner	South West corner foundation


South East corner foundation	Steel girders appear	More steel and masonry


Second floor begins to appear	Second floor peaks out	View from the north end


Buildings join together	Crane in action	We have a roof!


Story room going up	More big crane action!	Storm sewers going in


This used to be the alley	More roof appears	Where is the old building?


Two buildings joining together	A messy Sixth Avenue	Onwards and upwards


Meanwhile on the inside...	The alley is no more	Definitely no more


Brick begins to be laid	Activity hidden by tarps	Changes inside the library


Clock tower rises up	Tower and main entrance	View from 7th Avenue


New electrical equipment in the basement	Masonry appears on clock tower	Roof appears on clock tower


Lovely picture from 6th Avenue
