Wall of Building Falls in Excavation at Litchfield and Third
The west wall of the Hogland Hardware building on the corner of Litchfield Avenue and Third Street collapsed after an excavation weakened a 28 year old Boulder foundation. Paul Hedin narrowly escaped, as the wall exposed Bergan Hardware shelves and upstairs renters. The old foundation used round boulders with little plaster to hold them.
