Look Up: Restoration Of Newtown's Historic Cupola Begins

Call it history in the making for an historic structure.

For the first time in about 50 years, the cupola atop Newtown's Edmund Town Hall is being restored. Torrington-based Valley Restoration is performing the work, which will eventually culminate with the gilding — when a new layer of 23-carat gold is wrapped around a portion of the cupola.

For more information about the restoration project, check out this Announcement posted by Sheila Torres.
