For Immediate Press Release 2011-01

Under the sole discretion of the town mayor, the entire west end of 'Ole Dickens Town' will undergo a much needed face lift this year.  To the casual observer this may not be noticeable but several buildings will be raised to a higher elevation.  It was determined that more revenue is needed to support the Northern and Eastern expansion planned for 2011.  Existing residents and costermongers alike have previously expressed interest in more visibility.   This operation and renovation will only increase the revenues needed for such a proposed expansion.  Currently, the west end of town has not been as  visible to the common visitor and buisnesses in the area are reporting loss revenues.  Thus the following places of commerce will undergo an extensive elevation renovation:

• The Crowntree Inn
• The Holly Tree Inn
• The Flying Horse Tavern
• Turner's Spice and Mustard Shop
• The Village Bell Tower

The area of work is noted in the orange circles below. 

*It should be noted that E. Tipler Agent for Wine and Spirit shop will not be among the five businesses undergoing the extensive elevation change. 

More details to follow.
