The Town of Mansfield expects the demolition of the former Publications building, located on the corner of Dog Lane and Storrs Road (Route 195), to begin soon after May 23. Final permits and approvals are in the works.
Once the building has been demolished, construction of the first phase of Mansfield's new downtown, Storrs Center, can begin. Plans for the first phase include the realignment of Dog Lane and the construction of a mixed-use building which will house commercial uses on the ground level and residential units on the upper floors.
