Howe Proposal Recalled as Bristol Plans Library Use
The article recalls Wallis E. Howe’s April proposal to create a cultural center at Rogers Free Library as Bristol Historical Society considers occupying the first floor left vacant by Industrial Trust. It outlines Howe’s suggested plan to move the Burns Memorial Building to the Rogers Building and convert space for town offices and police headquarters, with incremental steps to stabilize town facilities while preserving library use.
