Fritzel group advances library expansion plan downtown
Gene Fritzel Construction executives inspected the downtown post office site for a potential $30 million library expansion on 645 Vermont Street. The plan envisions 260 to 500 underground parking spaces and a total private development of $110 million over 10 years on Fritzels’ 600 700 800 blocks of Vermont Street. The City Commission will review the Library Board’s recommendation at its December 19 meeting as options including relocation of the post office and alternative downtown sites are explored.
