Historic Grange building in Bridgewater demolished

The historic Grange building in Bridgewater has been demolished.  The 1850s-era building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  The state approved plans by Bridgewater to tear down the Main Street South structure.  Southbury-based Stone Construction Company won the bid for the work, which started Wednesday.  During the bid selection, Bridgewater Board of Selectmen agreed to salvage whatever material they could for reuse in a new building.  No official plans have been proposed for site development.  Potential plans include a memorial for Bridgewater veterans who served in wars since WWII and moving the soon to be restored "Captain's House" to its 4th location in town.  The House is now near the Burnham Library.  The Bridgewater Preservation Association tried to save the building from demolition by offering a dollar, but residents rejected the proposal in a vote.  It previously served as a meeting house, school house, and as town hall.
